It is from the Aspergillus section.[1] The species was first described in 2017.[1] It has been isolated from soil in South Africa.[1] It has been reported to produce auroglaucin, a bisanthron, dihydroauroglaucin, echinulins, epiheveadrides, flavoglaucin, isoechinulins, neoechinulins, physcion, and tetrahydroauroglaucin.[1]
A. caperatus has been cultivated on both Czapek yeast extract agar (CYA) plates and yeast extract sucrose agar (YES) plates. The growth morphology of the colonies can be seen in the pictures below.
