Pityrosporum pachydermatis in a black bear (Ursus americanus)

Abstract
Pityrosporum pachydermatis was repeatedly isolated from portions of alopecic tissue from the thorax and ears of a black bear cub (Ursus americanus). Yeastlike cells morphologically identical with those of P. pachydermatis were observed in stained tissue sections. This is the first reported association of this yeast with a member of the family Ursidae.
