Alternaria penicillata is a species of fungi in the family Pleosporaceae, which causes leaf blight of opium poppy. The fungus is found in Europe, Australia, India, Japan, Nepal, Pakistan, South Africa, Turkey, USA and Zambia.[4]

It was formerly Crivellia papaveracea in the monotypic genus Crivellia.[5] With DNA analyses showing that it was related to Alternaria brassicicola (Schw.) Wiltshire, Alternaria japonica Yoshii, and Ulocladium alternariae (Cooke) Simmons.[6]

Genus Crivellia was named after mycologist Paolo Giuseppe Crivelli (fl. 1981).[7]

It was found in Russia and Ukraine.[8]

In 2013, a new DNA study was carried out and reclassified former genera; Allewia, Brachycladium, Chalastospora, Chmelia, Crivellia, Embellisia, Lewia, Nimbya, Sinomyces, Teretispora, Ulocladium, Undifilum and Ybotromyces as synonymy with genus Alternaria.[2] As accepted by Wijayawardene et al. 2020.[9]
