M. daubentonii	The Netherlands	Gelderland	09/03/2010	Euthanized bat	NL 1	Wing: Very few cupping erosions+intraepidermalpustules with Gd hyphae; snout: some hair folliclesfilled with Gd hyphae+Gd hyphae in mucosalepithelium of nasal orifice	JF502411

Samples refer to biopsy punches from wing or uropatagial membranes. One bat from the Netherlands was euthanized and multiple strips of wing membrane were investigated. If touch imprints or tissue samples, corresponding to the histological examined sites, were taken for molecular analysis, GenBank accession numbers (Acc. No.) are included; W = wing; Urop = uropatagium; Gd = Geomyces destructans; str. = stratum; n.a. = not applicable; * = sequence obtained was 100% identical to all other ITS sequences of this study.
