Abstract

Two cases of ungual and cutaneous phaeohyphomycosis caused by Alternaria alternata and Alternaria chlamydospora are described. Oxiconazole and amorolfine were most effective in vitro against A. alternata and A. chlamydospora respectively. This is the first report of A. chlamydospora as an opportunistic pathogen of skin.
