FRAGNER P., MIŘEJOVSKÝ P. (1990): Key to histological identification causativeagents in systemic mycoses III. Česká Mykologie 44(3): 129-139 (published: 22nd October, 1990)
abstract
Based on authors’ experience and data from literature the key suggests identification of microscopical fungi according to morphology of mycotic elements found in histological sections from human and animal tissues. Part III: Concise information about species and varieties comprising remarks on occurrence and character of diseases in humans and animals, morphology of fungi in tissues and histopathological pictures. Examples include Histoplasma capsulatum var. capsulatum and its teleomorph Ajellomyces capsulatus.

NOVÁKOVÁ A., KUBÁTOVÁ A., SKLENÁŘ F., HUBKA V. (2018): Microscopic fungi on cadavers and skeletons from cave and mine environments [European caves, abandoned mines, dead bodies, bones, mammals, frogs, spiders, isopods, micromycetes] Czech Mycology 70(2): 101-121 (published: 19th August, 2018)
abstract
During long-term studies of microscopic fungi in 80 European caves and mine environments many cadavers and skeletons of animals inhabiting these environments and various animal visitors were found, some of them with visible microfungal growth. Direct isolation, the dilution plate method and various types of isolation media were used. The resulting spectrum of isolated fungi is presented and compared with records about their previous isolation. Compared to former studies focused mainly on bat mycobiota, this paper contributes to a wider knowledge of fungal assemblages colonising various animal bodies in underground environments.The most interesting findings include ascocarps of Acaulium caviariforme found abundant on mammals cadavers, while Botryosporium longibrachiatum isolated from frogs, Chaetocladium jonesiae from bats and Penicillium vulpinum from spiders represent the first records of these species from cadavers or skeletons.
NOVÁKOVÁ A., VAUGHAN M.J. (2016): Dimargaris bacillispora - novel records from cave environment and its isolation in culture. [Dimargitales, cave sediment, cadaver, cave-inhabiting invertebrates, faecal pellets] Czech Mycology 68(2): 167-182 (published: 7th November, 2016)
abstract
The coprophilous Dimargaris bacillispora is a rarely found and more rarely isolated microfungal species. In this study, we report the repeated observation and isolation of this fungus from a cave sediment used to rear cave-inhabiting isopods and springtails in the laboratory, originating from the Domica Cave, Slovakia. Dimargaris bacillispora was also observed and isolated from the faeces and cadavers of these laboratory-reared invertebrates. Subsequently, pure culture isolates of D. bacillispora were obtained from these substrates, characterised and identified. Finally, this species was then isolated directly from the cave sediment of the Domica Cave after several days of exposure of agar slants to the cave environment. This is the first record of this species from Europe and from a subterranean environment. Additionally, this study reports a new growth substrate for a fungus which was considered to be strictly coprophilous and mycoparasitic. This study suggests that this species is probably more widely distributed in nature than is reported in the literature, due to the difficulties of viewing its delicate sporophores and growing it in culture.
