Abstract: A mycological study was undertaken to determine the prevalence and incidence of superficial mycotic infections in Surguja, Chhattisgarh. Out of 187 cases 64 cases (45.3 %) were infected with dermatophytes. Among them the commonest etiological agent encountered was Trichophyton rubrum (28.1 %) followed by Trichophyton mentagrophytes (9.3 %), Trichophyton tonsurans (4.7 %) and Trichophyton violaceum (3.1 %). Other most frequently isolated non-dermatophytes were Candida albicans (34.3 %) and Aspergillus species (20.3 %) respectively
