This photomicrograph revealed some of the ultrastructural morphology exhibited by Trichophyton rubrum fungal organisms.

T. rubrum and T. tonsurans are two common dermatophytes. These two species are usually transmitted from person to person. Another common dermatophyte is Microsporum canis, which is transmitted from animals such as cats and dogs to people. Dermatophytes like to live on moist areas of the skin, such as places where there are skin folds. They can also contaminate items in the environment, such as clothing, towels and bedding.
