Molecular and Phenotypic Characterization of Nannizzia (Arthrodermataceae) [PDF]
Mycopathologia, 2019 Phylogenetic studies of the family Arthrodermataceae have revealed seven monophyletic dermatophyte clades representing the genera Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, Nannizzia, Lophophyton, Paraphyton, Microsporum, and Arthroderma. Members of the genus Nannizzia are geo- or zoophiles that occasionally infect humans.
