Dermatomycosis in a pet inland bearded dragon pogona vitticeps caused by a chrysosporium species related to nannizziopsis vriesii
Veterinary Dermatology, 2009Co-Authors: Maria Lourdes Abarca, Antoni Ramis, Jaime Martorell, Gemma Castellá, F J CabanesAbstract:A Chrysosporium sp. related to Nannizziopsis vriesii was isolated in pure culture from squames and biopsies of facial lesions in a pet inland bearded dragon (Pogona vitticeps) in Spain. The presence in histological sections of morphologically consistent fungal elements strongly incriminates this fungus as the aetiological agent of infection. Lesions regressed following treatment with oral ketoconazole and topical chlorhexidine and terbinafine until the lizard was lost to follow up 1 month later. The ITS-5.8S rRNA gene of the isolate was sequenced and a search on the GenBank database revealed a high match with the sequences of two Chrysosporium sp. strains recently isolated from green iguanas (Iguana iguana) with Dermatomycosis, also in Spain. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences revealed that all these strains are related to N. vriesii. This is the first report of dermatomycoses caused by a Chrysosporium species related to N. vriesii in a bearded dragon outside North America.

chrysosporium guarroi sp nov a new emerging pathogen of pet green iguanas iguana iguana
Medical Mycology, 2009Co-Authors: Maria Lourdes Abarca, Jordi Martorell, Gemma Castellá, F J CabanesAbstract:Chrysosporium guarroi sp. nov. represented by fi ve strains isolated from cases of Dermatomycosis in pet green iguanas ( Iguana iguana ) in Spain, is described and illustrated. This taxon is characterized by its ability to grow at temperatures from 15 to 37°C and by the presence of arthroconidia and aleurioconidia. The latter are unicellular, smooth, pyriform or clavate, sessile or borne at the ends of narrow stalks. The analysis of the sequences of the D1/D2 and ITS regions confi rm the separation of this new species from others of the genus Chrysosporium .

cutaneous hyalohyphomycosis caused by a chrysosporium species related to nannizziopsis vriesii in two green iguanas iguana iguana
Medical Mycology, 2008Co-Authors: Maria Lourdes Abarca, Jordi Martorell, Antoni Ramis, Gemma Castellá, F J CabanesAbstract:This report describes the first isolation of a Chrysosporium species as the etiological agent of Dermatomycosis in two green iguanas (Iguana iguana). The ITS-5.8S rRNA gene of the two strains was sequenced and a search on the GenBank database revealed that the closest match was Nannizziopsis vriesii. Treatment with oral ketoconazole, in combination with topical 2% chlorhexidine solution and terbinafine resulted in clinical cure.
