A hyphal form of Sporothrix schenkii from synovial fluid aspirate cultured on Sabouraud agar. Narrow branching hyphae (red arrows) giving rise to slender conidiophores (white arrows) at right angles. The apex of conidiophores is covered with tear-shaped conidia in a rosette-like fashion (black arrows). Single conidia can also be formed along the hyphae.
