Looks like you have an Aspergillus. I cannot tell the species based on what I see. I'd suggest looking at one of the older guides to genus Aspergillus to get a better idea about which species this could be. Jim White
Aspergillus species are identified on the basis of colour like shades of green, brown , black and others, conidiophore wall, phialides in one or two series, vesicle shape clavate or globose,, spore shape, smooth or rough, conidial chains radiate or in chains and other characters. In your picture the Aspergillus is having flask shaped vesicle, phialides in one series, spores not seen. It may belong to series Aspergillus fumigatus. Study the Aspergillus on Czapek and other media, study morphology and verify. You can get it identified by Medical Microbiology Department, Post Graduate Institute Medical Education and research, Chandigarh, or IARI, New Delhi.
