Figure 1.
Dermatophytes epidemiology on a worldwide basis. A solid color denotes that the identified Trichophyton is responsible for more than 85% of the cases in that country. Colorless hatching denotes that the identified Microsporum is responsible for more than 90% of cases in that nation. Both Trichophyton and Microsporum are significant causes of fungal infection in that nation, as evidenced by the combination of color and hatch patterns.
