Reviewing the world literature and including some personal communications and our own case, we have found 14 cases of keratomycosis by Monosporium apiospermum or by its perfect state Petrillidium (Allescheria) boydii. A table with only the 12 well-documented observations was prepared.
The Drechslera state of Cochiobolus spicifer, Nelson 1964, was isolated from a case of keratomycosis. The patient, a 19 year old man, showed a large corneal ulcer with hypopyon associated with the introduction of dust. The direct examination of several scrapings revealed dark-brown hyphae. This species has been reported as a casual agent of a nodular granulomatous mass in the foot of a cat and in the skin of a horse.
