Zasmidium cellare, also known as cellar mold, is a species of fungus that exists in dark, ethanol-rich environments and is brown to black in colour.[1][2] This species primarily exists in wine and brandy cellars in central and southern Europe,[2][3] but can be found in surrounding regions and is thought to be helpful in the wine making process by some[1] and a hygienic issue by others.[2][4] Not much is known about Z. cellare's sexual biology[1] and is thought to be beneficial to the cleanliness of cellar air due to its ability to consume musty odours.[2]
