Aspergillus nodularis(branched sterigmata) and aspergillus fumigatus (Fig. 91) are the mostfrequent varieties found. Penidllium minimum (similar to 89) has been found by Liebermann in inflammation of the ear. The more common pathogenic forms for man are those producingthe various hair and skin lesions mentioned above. These molds are 234 THE PATHOGENIC MOLDS all classed with the fungi imperfecti.
