 A study of the area between toes in 100 young adults found 14 different genera of fungi.These include yeasts such as "Candida albicans", "Rhodotorula rubra", "Torulopsis" and "Trichosporon cutaneum", dermatophytes (skin living fungi) such as "Microsporum gypseum", and "Trichophyton rubrum" and nondermatophyte fungi (opportunistic fungi that can live in skin) such as "Rhizopus stolonifer", "Trichosporon cutaneum", "Fusarium", "Scopulariopsis brevicaulis", "Curvularia", "Alternaria alternata", "Paecilomyces", "Aspergillus flavus" and "Penicillium" species.A study by the National Human Genome Research Institute in Bethesda, Maryland, researched the DNA of human skin fungi at 14 different locations on the body.
