Received 23 June 1999/Returned for modification 19 November 1999/Accepted 20 December 1999

The lipid-dependent species Malassezia sympodialis was isolated from two cats with otitis externa. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the isolation of lipid-dependent species of the genus Malassezia associated with skin disease in domestic animals.
