The black fungal: Mucormycosis

Mucormycosis is a deadly opportunistic disease caused by a group of fungus named mucormycetes. It is also known as Zygomycosis. It can be defined as an insidious fungal infection caused by members of Mucorales and zygomycotic species. Mucormycotina are the common saprobes originating from the rotten matter or soils. These fungi live throughout the environment, particularly in soil and in decaying organic matter, such as leaves, compost piles, or rotten wood.
