Abstract
Tinea nigra is a clinically distinctive superficial mycosis of the pal ms, and occasionally the soles, caused by Phaeoannellomyces werneckii. A patient, resident in the United Kingdom, is described who acquired the infection in Thailand. The condition cleared after treatment with topical miconazole cream 2%.
