  • Title: Adiaspiromycosis in a European beaver from Sweden.
    Author: Mörner T, Avenäs A, Mattsson R.
    Journal: J Wildl Dis; 1999 Apr; 35(2):367-70. PubMed ID: 10231764.
    Abstract:
    An infection with the rare mycosis Chrysosporium parvum was diagnosed in a European beaver (Castor fiber) shot in northern Sweden. The animal was in normal body condition and no signs of disease were observed. In the lungs a large number of nodules, up to 5 mm diameter, were observed. A large number of adiaspores were observed in the interstitium of the lungs and in the mediastinal lymph node. A chronic inflammatory reaction dominated by mononuclear leukocytes and giant cells was observed around the spores. This is the first report of adiaspiromycosis (Chrysosporium parvum) in the European beaver.
