AB  - Histoplasma  capsulatum,  a  thermal  dimorphic  fungus,  is  the  etiologic  agent  of  histoplasmosis.  In  most  endemic  areas,  H.  capsulatum  var.  capsulatum  is  the  causative  agent.  In  Africa,  H.  capsulatum  var.  duboisii  also  is  found;  var.  duboisii  can  be  differentiated  from  var.  capsulatum  as  the  duboisii  yeasts  are  larger.  In  Central  and  South  America,  histoplasmosis  is  common  and  is  caused  by  clades  of  H.  capsulatum  var.  capsulatum  that  differ  genetically  from  those  involved  elsewhere.
