Abstract
The time of Microsporum gypseum macroconidial development, with particular regard to spore ornamentation, was studied with the scanning electron microscope. The roughness of the spores was seen to be due to rounded projections (averaging 0·8 μ in diameter) which we have termed polyps; they were formed 2–3 h after macroconidial development.Thin sections of macroconidia revealed that the polyps were contiguous with the outer layer of the trilaminar cell wall.
