On the nosological affiliation of mycosis caused by the fungus Trichophyton indotineae

The article provides a general description of dermatomycetes (dermatophytes) as a non-systematic group of parasitic fungi, data on the factors of their aggression and virulence are summarized, and the main features of the clinical picture of skin mycosis caused by T. indotineae (indotine‑ mycosis), a new fungus, which many molecular geneticists consider to be an independent species, are listed. Doubts are expressed about the self-activity of this species within the genus Trichophyton, since to date there has been practically no serious microbiological description of its macro‑ and micromorphology. The clinical picture of skin mycosis caused by T. indotineae fully fits into the concept of «trichophytia», as this mycosis should be further classified.
