Pulmonary aspergillosis (cow 2). Section of lung from a 2 year old cow with weight loss and anorexia since calving. On necropsy examination, multiple firm masses were identified throughout the lungs. These were cavitating in nature, with a necrotic centre and peripheral fibrosis. Both this section and the following one are taken from the edge of such a lesion and demonstrate the pyogranulomatous inflammatory response.

Aspergillosis in penguins. Lesions found in captive Magellanic penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus) with aspergillosis as determined by histology.Hyaline, septate and branching hyphae, and asexual reproductive structure of Aspergillus observed in the tissues of Magellanic penguin with fatal aspergillosis.

Aspergillosis in penguins. Multiple granulomatous nodules at syrinx with necrotic debris and caseous exudates. These lesions were responsible for partial obstruction of the air passages.
