Abstract:In the podzol of a moraine covered by beech forest in the South West of West Berlin, nematodes were recovered and investigated for their fungal endoparasites. Thirty‐four isolates representing 6 fungal species were obtained; about 0.5% of the recovered nematodes were infected. The number of infections showed dependence on the season, which is interpreted as being correlated with the water content of the soil. No other soil component exhibited any correlation with the endoparasitic nematode‐destroying fungi.
