Abstract

The new genus Lacazia P. Taborda, V. Taborda, et McGinnis is proposed to accommodate Lacazia loboi (O. M. Fonseca et Lacaz) P. Taborda, V. Taborda, et McGinnis, the obligate pathogen that causes lobomycosis in mammals. The continued placement of that fungus in the genus Paracoccidioides Almeida as Paracoccidioides loboi is taxonomically inappropriate. Loboa loboi Ciferri et al. is a synonym of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis.
