A 10-yr-old girl developed itchy scalp lesions with active borders and scaling. The family cat also showed skin lesions. Wood’s lightillumination of both child and cat indicated yellow-green fluorescence. A hair plucked from the child’s scalp revealed sporulation(arthroconidia) on the outside of the shaft. Material for culture was obtained from the child’s scalp with a toothbrush. A slide cultureshowed spindle-shaped macroconidia. This is an example of infection caused by
