Abstract
The development of adiaspiromycosis and trichophytosis depending upon the state of activity of red-cheeked squirrels is described. The conidia of Chrysosporium (Emmonsia) parvum var. crescens, are not transformed into adiaspores when injected into hibernating animals. During the hibernation period of four months, most of the conidia die. After awakening, the remaining viable conidia are transformed into adiaspores. During hibernation the squirrels, which had been infected with Trichophyton mentagrophytes var. granulosum, developed a symptom-free infection.
