Some fungi can cause superficial infections in animals after accidental penetration and colonization on injured skin and can be transmitted to humans by exposure. The infection caused mainly by dermatophyte species and may also be caused rarely by yeasts and nondermatophytic molds.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n Eighty-two skin scrapings and hair samples were collected from animals (sheep, cow, cat, camel, calf, goat, horse, and dog) in three specialized pet clinics and three livestock and slaughterhouses. The isolates were identified using direct microscopy, culture, and polymerase chain reaction-sequencing of ITS1-5.8SrDNA-ITS2 region.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n Thirteen mold strains out of 82 clinical samples (15.8%) were isolated from animal lesions.\n Acremonium exuviarum<\/jats:italic>\n (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 4; 30.7%),\n Sarocladium implicatum<\/jats:italic>\n

opportunistic fungi are increasing as etiological agents of dermatomycoses, isolation of these molds from wounds can be a warning to veterinarians, and daily cleaning of wounds with a proper disinfectant is recommended for the prevention of fungal colonization.<\/jats:p>\n
