    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Despite the availability of modern antimycotics, which produce high cure rates in early infections, the therapy of advanced chromoblastomycosis is still unsatisfactory. An initial chromoblastomycosis caused by a hitherto unidentified species of the genus Phialophora was diagnosed in a 46-year-old teacher. The organism was isolated twice at an interval of 6 weeks from a partly psoriasiform, partly verrucous lesion on the 4th toe. The infection was apparently acquired 4 years ago during a holiday at Cape Verde. Treatment with itraconazole (Sempera), 200 mg/day, and amphotericin B (Ampho-Moronal) cream for 6 weeks initially resulted in rapid regression. However, 4 weeks after cessation of therapy, the Phialophora species was cultured again from skin scrapings. Complete healing was achieved after re-treatment with itraconazole for 20 weeks at the same dosage in combination with topical amorolfine and local hyperthermia. Until now, no relapse has occured. The present case demonstrates that this rare disease, which mainly occurs as a traumatic mycosis in the rural population of tropical regions, must be included in the differential diagnosis of psoriasiform or verrucous skin lesions and also included in the list of diseases which may be acquired while on vacation in exotic locations.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die Therapie der fortgeschrittenen Chromoblastomykose ist trotz moderner Antimykotika immer noch unbefriedigend, während die Behandlung im Frühstadium hohe Heilungsraten erwarten läßt. Bei einem 46 Jahre alten Lehrer konnte eine initiale Chromoblastomykose durch eine noch unbekannte Spezies der Gattung Phialophora diagnostiziert werden. Der Erreger wurde 2mal im Abstand von 6 Wochen aus einem teils psoriasiformen, teils verrukösen Herd an der 4. Zehe isoliert, die Infektion ist vermutlich im Rahmen eines Badeurlaubs 4 Jahre zuvor auf Cap Verde acquiriert worden. Unter 6wöchiger Therapie mit Itraconazol (Sempera) 200 mg/Tag und einer Amphotericin-B-haltigen Zubereitung (Ampho-Moronal-Creme) kam es bei guter Verträglichkeit zunächst zu einer raschen Rückbildung des Hautbefunds. Vier Wochen nach Therapieende ließ sich der Erreger jedoch erneut aus Schuppenmaterial anzüchten. Eine nochmalige, nun 20wöchige Itraconazoltherapie in obiger Dosierung führte in Kombination mit topischem Amorolfin und lokaler Hyperthermie zu einer nun vollständigen, rezidivfreien Abheilung. Der vorliegende Fall zeigt, daß diese seltene Erkrankung – als Verletzungsmykose vornehmlich bei der Landbevölkerung tropischer Regionen auftretend – auch als sog. Urlaubsdermatose im Zug des Ferntourismus in die Differentialdiagnostik psoriasiformer oder verruköser Hautveränderungen einbezogen werden muß.

    Notes: Abstract Three strains ofTrichosporiella sporotrichoides van Oorschot showed divergent reactions to suspension plating. A comparison was made with other yeast-like fungi and some descriptive terms were redefined or introduced. Strain CBS 671.74 developed the same hyphae with lateral conidia as in streak cultures. Strain CBS 577.77 showed initial-stage budding eventually giving rise to hyphae with lateral conidia. CBS 152.76 showed phenotypic segregation with suspension plating and an additional pseudomycelial form in liquid culture. Further differences between the strains were found in carbohydrate composition of cells, ultrastructure of cell walls and in growth patterns on various sugars. Two strains with basidiomycetous affinities are reclassified in the genusTrichosporon. A third strain with ascomycetous affinities is redescribed asTrichosporiella ornithopoda spec. nov.

    Notes: Abstract DNA base compositions of representative (type) strains of Moniliella, Trichosporonoides and Hyalodendron were determined. Within Trichosporonoides over 16% variance was found. Most species separated well, but M. suaveolens showed considerable heterogeneity. The standard 2% G+C differences for species distinction is probably not applicable to these yeasts. The new combination M. pollinis is proposed for M. tomentosa var. pollinis on the basis of slight ecological, morphological and physiological differences, supported by a marked difference in % G+C.

    Notes: Abstract Morphological taxonomy of simple Hyphomycetes is complicated by the frequent occurrence of pleoanamorphism. In some groups of yeast-like fungi, uncommon synanamorphs are diagnostic. Differences in conidiogenesis do not always delimit natural groups. Some nomenclatural problems are mentioned, with an emphasis on the need of neotypification. Prospects are sketched for future taxonomic research.

    Notes: Abstract Within the hyphomycete genus Sporothrix Hektoen & Perkins three distinct groups are recognized on the basis of carbohydrate patterns. In the first group, and in Blastobotrys Klopotek, mannose is predominant while xylose and rhamnose are absent; this suggests a relationship with the Ascoideaceae. A second group, comprising anamorphs of Ophiostomataceae, is characterized by the presence of rhamnose. A third group is characterized by the presence of xylose, indicating a basidiomycete affinity. Three sections are erected to accommodate these groups.

    Notes: Abstract The new species, Hyphozyma roseonigra, characterized by pink colonies, budding cells with minute annellated zones and brown, septate hyphae, is described. It is non-fermentative, shows no colouration with Diazonium Blue B, and has an ascomycete-type cell wall ultrastructure. A key to the accepted species and varieties of Hyphozyma is given.

    Notes: Abstract Total patterns of water-soluble proteins of 35 strains (7 species) of Galactomyces and Dipodascus strains with their respective Geotrichum anamorphs are compared. Quantitative differences among a number of species are found with iso-electric focusing; bands that characterize species are selected. Qualitative differences are found between the teleomorph genera.

    Notes: Abstract The morphological development and nuclear behaviour of two species ofDissoconium are described. The fungi are monokaryotic in all stages of their life cycle. Liberated pairs of conidia may form anastomoses, probably serving survival under hostile environmental conditions. The function of the one-celled conidia inD. dekkeri remains unexplained.
