Weinstein, Richard N.; Palm, Mary E.; Johnstone, Keith; Wynn-Williams, David D.. 1997 Ecological and physiological characterization of Humicola marvinii, a new psychrophilic fungus from fellfield soils in the maritime Antarctic. Mycologia, 89 (5). 706. 10.2307/3761126
Fungi were isolated from fellfield soils at Signy Island (60° 43′ S, 45° 38′ W) in the maritime Antarctic between December 1994 and February 1995 in order to study their role in colonization processes. A psychrophilic species of Humicola was isolated that differs physiologically and morphologically from Humicola fuscoatra, to which it bears a resemblance. Based on these characteristics it is described herein as a new species, Humicola marvinii.
