The RAPD-PCR pattern analyses revealed the genetic diversity by estimating the percentage of polymorphic loci, effective number of alleles, Shannon's index and heterozygosity. Population structure was identified by the index of association (<jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>A<\/jats:sub>) test. Thirty-seven isolates were studied and clustered into three groups by the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA). Group I contained five subgroups based on geographic origin. The consistency of the UPGMA dendrogram was estimated by the cophenetic correlation coefficient (<jats:italic>CCCr<\/jats:italic>= 0.94,<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>= 0.001). Isolates from Mexico and Colombia presented higher genetic diversity than isolates from Argentina. Isolates from Guatemala grouped together with the reference strains from the United States of America and Panama. The<jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>A<\/jats:sub>values suggest the presence of a clonal population structure in the Argentinian<jats:italic>H. capsulatum<\/jats:italic>isolates and also validate the presence of recombining populations in the Colombian and Mexican isolates.
