Description Rhinosporidium seeberi, the causative orguism of reinosporidiosis in man, cattle, horses, mules and pigs has not been successfully cultivated so far. During the period of study of 4 years, Kanyakumari district of Tamil Nadu was found to be the high incidence area for both human and bovine rhinosporidiosis. Attempts were made to cultivate the fungus on routine media like Sabouraud's agar, and Tryptose agar both with and without carbondioxide but were not successful. So preliminary studies were carried out to sustain the growth and also to study the cyclio growth of sporangium during the period of growth.
