Fungi on the hair of large mammals in Egypt.
The frequency of occurrence of fungi in 260 hair samples of dog, donkey and cow collected from Veterinary Medicine Hospital of Assiut University was determined. Twenty-three species which belong to fifteen genera were collected. In low frequency, several dermatophytes (Chrysosporium, Microsporum, Arthroderma and Trichophyton) were found as well as some other fungal species pathogenic to man and animals (Aspergillus fumigatus, Stachybotrys chartarum, Scopulariopsis brevicaulis and Cephalosporium acremonium).
