Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

ABSTRACT Background Dermatophyte infections, which are among the most prevalent fungal infections globally, affect skin, hair and nails, accounting for significant morbidity. Epidemiological data on dermatophytosis in the UK are limited. One notable study in 2007 provided insights into the causative agents of dermatophyte infections in the UK; however,

Molecular Epidemiology of Sporothrix schenckii.
Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of clinical and environmental isolates of Sporothrix schenckii was investigated. Among mtDNA RFLP patterns with Hae III, of 14 environmental isolates morphologically identified as S. schenckii, only 2 isolates were confirmed as S.

Sporothrix schenckii fungemia without disseminated sporotrichosis [PDF]
Fungemia is a rare complication of Sporothrix schenckii infection and has always been associated with disseminated sporotrichosis. We describe an immunocompetent patient with localized lymphocutaneous sporotrichosis from whose blood the fungus was isolated. A lysis-centrifugation blood culture system may have improved our ability to detect low-level S.

A Cautionary Tale of Exophiala spinifera Infection in Two Cats: Case Reports and Literature Review
This case series reports two independent cases of Exophiala spinifera infection in adult male neutered domestic cats, both referred following misdiagnosis. To date, only six cases associated with this organism have been reported in domestic cats, excluding those described herein. These also represent the first documented cases of E. spinifera infection

Fungal DNA‐barcoding on a chip: Magnetoresistive biosensors for yeast infection diagnosis
The development of a fungal pathogen identification chip is herein demonstrated. Hybridization dynamics were tested against 58 species in silico and 4 species on chip. 95% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 98% specificity and femtomolar limit of detection were achieved. Future perspectives include the integration of sample pre‐treatment modules.
