Malassezia nana
Malassezia nana is a fungus that can cause opportunistic infections in animals. It was first isolated from animals in Japan and Brazil. M. nana resembles M. dermatis and M. sympodialis, but is distinguished from these species by its inability to use Kolliphor EL as the sole lipid source and to hydrolyse aesculin. The type strain of M. nana is NUSV 1003T.
