Figure

Worldwide isolations of Cryptococcus gattii from human clinical, veterinary, and environmental sources. Circles indicate serotype information, diamonds indicate genotype information, and rectangles indicate hybrids between C. gattii and C. neoformans. Existing reports and survey are patchy, and several areas between positive regions share tree species (Table 2) and climatic conditions and would most likely harbor the pathogen. Thus, C. gattii is likely to be more widely distributed than document
