{Abstract}: Subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis is caused by traumatic implantation of melanized environmental fungi. The majority of cases occur in tropical areas of the world or are associated with travel from these regions. Herein, we describe a rare case of subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis caused by Rhytidhysteron rufulum in an immunocompetent Somalia-born patient. The use of molecular diagnostics as an essential tool for identification of rare fungal pathogens is highlighted.
