[Tinea nigra plantaris].
A second case of tinea nigra occuring in Germany is recorded. The patient was a 33 year old women, who supposedly acquired the infection in Israel, which was not diagnosed until two years after the onset. Scrapings from a dark macule on her sole yielded Cladosporium werneckii. The lesion cleared with topical treatment of a keratinolytic ointment and a haloprogin-cream.
