ID#: 4023 Description: This photomicrograph shows two tuberculate macroconida of the Jamaican isolate of Histoplasma capsulatum.

Histoplasma capsulatum grows in soil, and material contaminated with bat or bird droppings. Spores become airborne when contaminated soil is disturbed, and breathing the spores causes histoplasmosis, a disease not transmitted from person to person.
