Taxonomy:	Eukaryota \| Opisthokonta \| Fungi \| Dikarya \| Ascomycota \| saccharomyceta \| Pezizomycotina \| leotiomyceta \| sordariomyceta \| Sordariomycetes \| Hypocreomycetidae \| Hypocreales \| Clavicipitaceae \| Metarhizium
Synonym:	Metarhizium anisopliae var. acridum
Comment:	Metarhizium anisopliae is a fungus that grows naturally in soils throughout the world and causes disease in various insects by acting as a parasite; it thus belongs to the entomopathogenic fungi. It is being used as a biological insecticide to control a number of pests such as grasshoppers, termites, thrips, etc. and its use in the control of malaria-transmitting mosquitos is under investigation. Some strains are so specific that they have attained variety status, like Metarhizium anisopliae var. acridum, which almost exclusively infects grasshoppers in the suborder Caelifera of the Orthoptera.
