Zoophilic dermatophytes were a common source of both human and animal ringworm infections in Western Australia. Microsporum canis was the chief aetiologic agent of infections in kittens and children. Trichophyton mentagrophytes was isolated from domestic pets, farm animals, laboratory animals and wild animals as well as humans. T. verrucosum was a less frequent cause of infection in both man and animals. Other zoophilic species isolated included M. Gypseum, M. nanum and T. equinum var. autotrophicum.
亲动物性皮肤真菌是西澳大利亚州人类和动物癣感染的常见来源。犬小孢子菌是小猫和儿童感染的主要病原体。须癣毛癣菌可从家养宠物、农场动物、实验动物、野生动物以及人类中分离得到。疣状毛癣菌在人和动物中引起感染的频率较低。分离出的其他亲动物性菌种包括石膏样小孢子菌、猪小孢子菌和马内癣菌变种自养型。
