Abstract
Even though their fungal nature may not have been recognised as such, fungi growing on insects or their larvae have long drawn the interest of naturalists. Prominent examples are Cordyceps species and the silkworm diseases, white and green muscardine, caused by Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae. Even today these fungi and their interactions with their hosts are still a matter of investigations. A modern pictorial overview on entomopathogenic fungi is given by Samson et al. (1988). Fungal diseases are dealt with by Carruthers and Soper (1987) and the underlying biochemistry and molecular biology have been described by Khachatourians (Chap. 17, vol. VI) and others.
