Abstract
Malassezia strains from dogs and rhinoceros all proved identical using mole % G + C and nDNA/DNA reassociation experiments. The use of the n ame Malassezia pachydermatis, originally described for a strain isolat ed from a rhinoceros, is thus justified for non lipid-dependent strain s of other sources.
