Voriconazole successfully treats chytridiomycosis in frogs

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms
Chytridiomycosis is a devastating disease and is a key cause of amphibian population declines around the world. Despite active research on this amphibian disease system for over 2 decades, we still do not have treatment methods that are safe and that can be broadly used across species.

The Influence of Temperature on Chytridiomycosis In Vivo

EcoHealth, 2017
Chytridiomycosis, an amphibian disease caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is an ideal system for studying the influence of temperature on host-pathogen relationships because both host and pathogen are ectothermic. Studies of Bd in culture suggest that optimal growth occurs between 17 and 23°C, and death of the fungus ...

Chytridiomycosis Survey in Wild and Captive Mexican Amphibians

EcoHealth, 2008
Mexico, a rich country in terms of amphibian diversity, hosts about 375 described species. Population declines have been documented for several species where it is evident that their habitat is being destroyed or modified. However, other species which inhabit pristine areas are declining as well.

Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and Chytridiomycosis in Anuran Amphibians of Colombia

EcoHealth, 2008
In order to investigate the possible presence of the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Chytridiomycota: Chytridiales) in frogs (Amphibia: Anura) of Colombia, we made a retrospective examination of formalin-fixed specimens preserved in natural history collections.

Chytridiomycosis: a global threat to amphibians.

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 2014
Chytridiomycosis, which is caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, is an emerging infectious disease of amphibians. The disease is one of the main causes of the global decline in amphibians. The aetiological agent is ubiquitous, with worldwide distribution, and affects a large number of amphibian species in several biomes.

[Chytridiomycosis in amphibians--first report in Europe].

Berliner und Munchener tierarztliche Wochenschrift, 2000
Declining of amphibian populations is a worldwide phenomenon. A cutaneous mycosis as a cause of death in free-living amphibians as well as in captive ones due to an chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) was reported at first in 1998. This infections were reported hitherto from Australia, North, Central and South America.
