Reservоirs fоr оrgаnism is аlkаline desert soil. [1] Organisms are found in areas surrounding the Mississippi, Missouri and Ohio rivers and their tributaries. [2] [22] Reservoirs for organism are soil with high nitrogen content resulting from deposits of excreta from starlings (birds), chickens and bats. [3] Organism can be identified by patient symptoms, and the presence of large, thick-wall, endosporulating spherules in tissue. A culture is not required or recommended. [4] Disease caused by this organism has been referred to as spelunker’s disease. (Spelunker is a “cave explorer”) [5] Intracellular parasite of the reticuloendothelial system. (i.e. can invade macrophages) [6] Often called the “Rose Handler’s” disease, because it infects people through puncture wounds or cuts in skin.
