The order Onygenales includes keratinophilic fungi, such as dermatophytes, that can cause onychomycosis. Although dermatophytes are the primary cause of these infections, other keratinophilic onygenalean fungi have also been reported from nail infections. Here we introduce a novel onygenalean fungus isolated from an infected nail in the Netherlands. This fungus, which we describe here as Verweija noviomagensis, is described morphologically with a gymnothecium composed of loose, interwoven hyphae lacking appendages, eight-spored asci, and bright yellow ascospores. A multilocus phylogeny with eight markers classified it within the order Onygenales; however, it was not placed in any defined family within the order.
