Sporotrichosis and paracoccidioidomycosis in Peru: experiences in prevention and control
The epidemiological picture of sporotrichosis and paracoccidioidomycosis in Peru and Latin America is sporadic, fragmented, and geographically limited, mainly due to lack of mandatory reporting and limited diagnostic coverage.

Development and optimization of a new MALDI-TOF protocol for identification of the Sporothrix species complex [PDF]
Accurate species identification of the Sporothrix schenckii complex is essential, since identification based only on phenotypic characteristics is often inconclusive due to phenotypic variability within the species.
