A case of nodose mucormycosis caused by Mucor pusillus was diagnosed in a six-month-old bull slaughtered due to chronic health issues. The mediastinal lymph nodes showed extensive caseous necroses. Histopathology confirmed the infection, and cultures yielded the causative agent. This represents the first reported case of its kind in Czechoslovakia.
