title: [Soil as a reservoir of opportunistic mycostic agents].
abstract: We studied the soil as a reservoir of vegetable detritus, keratinous materials of birds, terrestrial animals and micro-organisms. In the last group we can mention the bacteria and fungi. We classified the opportunistic fungi in three groups: (1) parasites of plants or growing on the vegetable detritus; (2) geophylic dermatophytes; (3) pathogenic fungi that in some cases behave like opportunistic ones. In each group we studied the opportunistic fungi of the soil, their relations with it chemical and physical composition, the mycoflora and the role of animal habitats.
