title: Dermatophytosis of pigs by Trichophyton mentagrophytes.
abstract: We describe the isolation of Trichophyton mentagrophytes in two family-operated farms where the animals were suffering skin ailments characterized by a swelling and a reddening of the back and flanks. This condition affected 2 and 5% respectively of the animals on the farms, the younger ones being more frequently affected.
