Material and Methods: The diagnosis of TINEA UNGUIUM was established through visualization of fungal mycelium's and artroconidia in a direct microscopic examination of nail scrapings and by isolation of exact DERMATOPHYTE colony from culture of clinical samples in S (Saboursud's Dextrose Agar) and SCC (Mycosel Agar) medium. Results: Examination of sample from nail of these patients in 36 (7%) had positive and 478 (93%) negalive results. From all of36 case with positve exam, 15 (42%) cases were female and 21 (58%) case male. 15 [(42%) (8 male, 7 female)] Case from all of36 positive cases, had TINEA UNGUIUM in fmgernails and 21 [(58%) (13 male, 8 female)] in toenails. Trichophyton mentagrophyes var. interdigitale and var. mentagrophytes (9 cases), T. Verrucosum(5), Microsporum canis (4 cases), T. Violaceum (3 cases), T. schoenleinii (2 cases) and T. rubrum (2%) were isolated from culture of Samples in S (Saboursud's Dextose Agar) and SCC (Mycosel Agar) Medium.
