“…Some authors have reported mucormycosis of poultry from India (Parihar and Singh, 1971;Rajan and Sivadas, 1972) but Absidia corymbifera infection of eggs has not been recorded so far. This fungus, however, produces disease conditions in cattle (Nicolet et al 1966;Hewer et al 1968;Knudtson et al 1975), canine (Dawson, et al 1969;Lucke et al 1969;English and Lucke, 1970) and pig (Vitovec et al 1976). It would appear that Absidia corymbifera can infect animals, poultry and eggs equally well.…”

“…They reproduce under many environmental conditions and can easily be cultured from air, dust, hay, and straw 12–14 . Aspergillus has been implicated in respiratory, reproductive, integumentary, ocular, and neurological infections in animals, including dogs, birds, cow, horses, dolphins, and okapi 12,14–16 . Two cases of fatal pneumonia in okapi calves caused by A. fumigatus have been reported 16 .…”

“…Aspergillus has been implicated in respiratory, reproductive, integumentary, ocular, and neurological infections in animals, including dogs, birds, cow, horses, dolphins, and okapi 12,14–16 . Two cases of fatal pneumonia in okapi calves caused by A. fumigatus have been reported 16 . In that report, both calves died within the first month of life and the authors concluded that inhalation or ingestion of spores from hay was the most likely source of the infection 16 .…”
