An isolate of Malassezia from a cat with otitis externa was examined mycologically as well as molecularly. The isolate was similar to M. sympodialis in morphological and biochemical characteristics. In molecular analysis, however, it differed from the 7 species of Malassezia previously reported. Therefore, this clinical isolate from a cat might be a new species of Malassezia.
对从一只患有外耳炎的猫身上分离出的马拉色菌进行了真菌学和分子学检查。该分离株在形态和生化特征上与合轴马拉色菌相似。然而，在分子分析中，它与先前报道的7种马拉色菌不同。因此，这一来自猫的临床分离株可能是马拉色菌的一个新物种。
