The mortality rate may reach 85%. Aspergillus identification should be based on molecular methods as there are species morphologically similar but distinct at the molecular level (cryptic species), with variable antifungal susceptibility profiles.engAspergillusCryptic SpeciesHospital EnvironmentNosocomial InfectionsAntifungal ResistenceInfeções NosocomiaisInfecções Sistémicas e ZoonosesDetection of cryptic species of Aspergillus with reduced susceptibility to antifungal agents in hospitalsDeteção de espécies crípticas de Aspergillus com suscetibilidade reduzida a antifúngicos em ambiente hospitalarconference object
