Ascomycetes from Mangrove ecosystem of Wandoor- Andaman (India)
Keywords:
Mangrove, Marine, Fungi, Ascomycetes, Wandoor and AndamanAbstract
The present study deals with marine fungi from Wandoor -Andaman. The dead, decaying, intertidal and submerged mangrove wood samples were collected from Wandoor. These samples examined for colonization of marine fungi. Total 10 species of marine Ascomycetes fungi were encountered. These includes Aigialus mangrovei, Astrosphaeriella striatapora, Eutypa bathurstensis, Halorosellinia oceanica, Rimora mangrovei, Savoryella lignicola, Torpedospora radiata, Trematosphaeria mangrovei, Verruculina enalia and Zopfiella marina. Out of these fungi Halorosellinia oceanica is very common fungus reported from most of the wood samples in Wandoor Island.
