Tinea pedis, Trichophyton rubrun and T. mentagrophytes are the most common agents.

Nice case. I had some cases like this some time ago simulating Melanocytic lesions. One of them was this disease, the other one was a case of "Talon noir".

Well done Rinad & Clara.  I reported this as Tinea nigra. Pigmented (dematiaceous) fungi in the stratum corneum. This is the first "hot" case I have seen in the UK.  I think lesions are more common in tropical/subtropical zones presumably because of the likelihood of walking around in bare feet. Nice to see some new contributors.
