title: Isolation of saprophytic Microsporum praecox Rivalier from sites associated with horses.
abstract: Several M. praecox isolates of saprophytic origin were obtained in Belgium from horses and their surroundings. Visualization of macroconidia in dust collected in stables proved its saprophytic origin. A few strains were obtained from human cases of tinea corporis.
