X Abstract

Summary Soils, seeded withCoccidioides immitis in the laboratory, were baited with sterile paper strips, cotton, charcoal, chopped aster stems, horse hair, human hair and dehydrated pork liver cubes. Some growth was evident on horse and human hair, while growth was luxuriant on dehydrated pork liver. Essentially no growth ofC. immitis was observed on other baits utilized. Feasibility of isolation ofC. immitis from naturally infected soils by baiting is suggested. Spiral hyphae, noted in certain dermatophytic fungi and other Gymnoascaceae, is reported inC. immitis and possible affinity with Gymnoascaceae is conjectured.
