    Notes: Abstract A survey was carried out on the species of fungi associated with mycotic infections of fish in a Nigerian freshwater fish pond. A total of 24 fungal species belonging to 6 genera of aquatic phycomycete were isolated from the infected fishes. Achlya racemosa, Aphanomyces laevis, Dictyuchus sterile, Saprolegnia ferax, S. litoralis and S. parasitica had 100% frequency of occurrence amongst the infected fishes. There were similarities in the species of fungi isolated from the infected fishes in the fish pond and those isolated from the hatchery. Of the infected fishes, Clarias lazera had the highest number of fungal isolates. It was followed by Tilapia zilli, then by Chanos chanos, Ethmalosa fimbriata and finally by Cyprinus carpio. The implications of the results obtained on the development of fish farming in Nigeria are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract During a survey of keratinophilic fungi in Nigerian soil samples, twelve species of fungi were isolated. These included Chrysosporium keratinophilum, C. tropicum, Curvularia lunata, Microsporum audouinii, M. canis, M. fulvum, M. gypseum, M. vanbreuseghemii, Trichophyton ajelloi, T. mentagrophytes, T. soudanense and T. yaoundei. These keratinophilic fungi had a higher incidence by occurrence of individual species during the rainy season (May–October) than the dry season (November–April).

    Notes: Abstract A survey was carried out on the incidence of candidiasis amongst the asymptomatic female students of University of Jos. One hundred and three students were selected at guided random. Their first stream urine samples were collected with the aid of sterile McCarthney bottles. The deposits of the centrifuged urine samples were plated out on sabouraud's dextrose agar (SDA) fortified with antibiotics (penicillin G and streptomycin). A total number of 42 positive Candida cases were obtained. This represented 40.78% of the total samples (103) examined. The Candida species isolated included C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. guilliermondi, C. parapsilosis, C. pseudotropicalis, C. stellatoidea, C. tropicalis and C. viswanathii. C. albicans and C. tropicalis were more predominant than the other species. C. albicans had 38.10% frequency of occurrence while C. tropicalis had 21.43% occurrence. The least percentage occurrence was recorded for C. viswanathii which had 2.38%. There were significant relationships between the incidence of candidiasis and the perdisposing factors like drug administration (antibiotics and contraceptive pills), cases of pregnancy and previous cases of urinogenital tract infection. Neither the marital status nor the age groups of the test female students had significant effects on the incidence of this disease. The pH values of the infected urine samples had a significant effect on the incidence of the disease.

    Notes: Abstract A survey was carried out on the distribution of ringworm infections among school children in four primary schools in Jos, Plateau State of Nigeria. Out of a total population of 6 987, 237 (3.4%) were found to be infected by this disease. There was a high incidence of both scalp and foot ringworms among the infected children. Fourteen species of dermatophytes were isolated from the ringworm cases. The scalp ringworm had the highest number of fungal isolates. Trichophyton mentagrophyte and T. rubrum had the highest frequencies of occurrence. Some of the infected children were found to have nomadic parents who moved about with cattle.

    Notes: Abstract There are very few medical reports on the nomadic peoples of the world. In Nigeria such reports are nonexistent. The present work has looked at the distribution of ringworm infections among the Nigerian nomadic Fulani herdsmen. An examination of their infected herds of cattle revealed similarities in the species of dermatophytes isolated from the herdsmen and those isolated from their cattle. Some of the leaves of the plants that lined the cattle tracks normally used by both the herdsmen and their cattle yielded some of the species of dermatophytes isolated from the herdsmen and their cattle. The possible origins of the dermatophytes that caused the ringworm infections amongst the nomads are discussed.
