Tóm tắt

Fresh water on a small marine island is rather limited and could be the habitat of aquatic fungi. Members of the Saprolegniales and Peronosporales can survive on organic matter found floating or submerged in shallow water. Recently a preliminary study was conducted on the keratinophilic fungi of Abaco Island, The Bahamas (5). The same island was surveyed for fresh water fungi in this investigation.
