First Italian report of onychomycosis caused by Onychocola canadensis

Abstract
Onychocola canadensis is a non-dermatophytic mould that has been associated with onychomycosis particularly in temperate climates. Until now, O. canadensis has been isolated from patients in Canada (14 cases), New Zealand (three), France (nine), UK (four) and Spain (two). We describe the first Italian case of onychomycosis caused by this fungus.
