Micrographs of immunoperoxidase stained sections through the interdigital webbing of Xenopus gilli, showing the morphologic features and size of zoosporangia consistent with Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis. A) Arrow a indicates localized hyperplastic epidermal response; arrow b indicates an uninfected region of the epidermis. B) Arrows indicate two zoosporangia with internal septa. Circle indicates location of the infection in the stratum corneum. Bar, 10 μm.
