Tinea incognito is a cutaneous infection with atypical clinical characteristics. Disease is usually caused by administration of steroids. We describe a 25-year-old man who presented with local lesion in groin being treated with corticosteroid. Epidermophyton floccosum, an anthropophilic species, was identified by mycological examinations, direct and culture.
