Hortaea werneckii

Petrovic, U. Gunde-Cimerman, N. Plemenitas, A. Cellular responses to environmental salinity in the halophilic black yeast Hortaea werneckii. Mol. Microbiol, 45, 665-672 (2002)... 

Hortaea werneckii is a dimorphic black yeast which exclusively causes tinea nigra palmaris on one or both hands or on the sole. It is restricted to tropical, subtropical and mediterranean areas [80]. H. werneckii is halotolerant having its natural habitat in salty environments [306]. Complete sequences of the 18S rDNA (fig. 3) [89] as well as partial sequences of the 26S rDNA suggest a relationship of H. werneckii with the Dothideales.
