“…Tsui et al (2000) reported similar results from various freshwater habitats in Hong Kong namely: Tung Chung River (2.2 asexual: 1 sexual taxa), Hang Cho Shui and Tai Po Kau Forest Stream (2 : 1). Similar results were recorded from different parts of the world: Palmiet river, South Africa (1.1: 1) (Hyde et al 1998), Lake Barrine, Queensland, Australia (1.5:1) (Hyde & Goh 1998) and Brunei (1.4: 1) (Ho et al 2001). The reasons for the variation in dominance of asexual fungi over ascomycetes are unknown.…”

“…Filamentous freshwater fungi play a major role in decomposition of plant remains in streams, rivers and lakes and in nutrient recycling (Hyde & Goh 1998, 1999, Wong et al 1998, Cai et al 2003a, b, Jones & Choeyklin 2008, Raja et al 2012. Shearer (1993) defined freshwater ascomycetes as -all ascomycetes that occur on submerged or partially submerged substrata in aquatic habitats‖.…”

This study represents the first published data of freshwater fungi from the River Nile in Egypt. Knowledge concerning the geographic distribution of freshwater ascomycetes and their asexual morphs in Egypt and in the Middle East is limited. Ninety-nine taxa representing 42 sexual ascomycetes, 55 asexual taxa and two basidiomycetes were identified from 959 fungal collections recorded from 400 submerged samples. Samples were randomly collected from the River Nile, in Sohag, Egypt in the winter and summer between December 2010 and August 2014. Fifty-eight taxa (22 sexual ascomycetes and 36 asexual taxa) were collected during winter, while 60 taxa (25 sexual ascomycetes, 33 asexual taxa and two basidiomycetes) were collected in summer season. Of the 99 taxa recorded, 50 are new records for Egypt, including five new genera and 30 new species., Three new genera and ten new species were described in previous articles. Fungi recorded from the two seasons were markedly different, with only 19 species common to both winter and summer collections. Asexual fungi dominated the fungal community during the two seasons. Taxonomical placements of 33 species were confirmed by molecular data based on LSU and SSU rDNA genes. Lolia aquatica (14.2%) was the dominant fungus in both winter and summer collections. Other dominant fungi were: Ceratorhiza sp. (19.5 %) and Limnoperdon sp. (13 %). These two basidiomycetes were the most common taxa in the summer, while they were absent in the winter. Common fungi were Coleophoma emperti (9.2 %), Zopfiella latipes (8 %), Discosporium tremuloides (5.5 %), Trematophoma lignicola (5.5 %) and Ophioceras commune (5 %). Specious genera recorded from the two seasons were Dictyosporium (6 species), Monodictys-like (3 species), Aniptodera (3 species), Lolia (3 species), Podospora (3 species), Zopfiella (3 species), and two species belong to each of the following genera: Achaetomium, Annulatascus, Lentithecium,

“…Submerged woody debris supports a higher species diversity of miscellaneous mitosporic ascomycetes although this may reflect a lack of study of herbaceous debris using techniques that would facilitate the discovery of species in this group. There is a higher ratio of miscellaneous mitosporic ascomycetes to meiosporic ascomycetes on submerged wood, which is indicated by the following studies from lentic (Shearer and Crane 1986;Hyde and Goh 1998a;Goh and Hyde 1999) and lotic habitats (Shearer 1972;Hyde and Goh 1997Hyde et al 1998;Sivichai et al 2000Sivichai et al , 2002Tsui et al 2000;Kane et al 2002). Goh and Tsui (2003) provide a taxonomic key to commonly occurring genera of freshwater aeroaquatic and miscellaneous mitosporic fungi.…”

“…A la fecha se han descrito seis especies, C. brocchiatum se distingue principalmente por el tamaño de sus conidios, los cuales son más grandes que en las otras especies. C. brocchiatum ha sido colectado en madera sumergida y hojas en Japón, Nueva Zelanda (Tubaki, 1975) y Australia (Hyde y Goh, 1998 Colonias sobre el sustrato compuestas por una trama micelial superficial, cupulada, amarilla brillante con masas negras de conidios en el centro, de hasta 650 µm de diámetro. Conidióforos basáuxicos, macronematosos, mononematosos, cafés claros, lisos, de 1-2 µm de diámetro.…”

RESUMENSe registran por primera vez para México y se describen 10 especies de Hyphomycetes asociadas a restos vegetales, colectadas en diversas zonas tropicales de México. Las descripciones se basan en las características morfológicas de los especímenes in situ. Algunas especies fueron aisladas en medio de cultivo. Se anexa información sobre la distribución y características distintivas de cada hongo. La mayoría de las especies estudiadas son poco conocidas a nivel mundial. ABSTRACTTen dematiaceous species collected in plant debris, are recorded for the first time in several tropical and semitropical localities of Mexico. Descriptions are based on their morphology in situ. Some species were isolated into culture. Additional information on their geographical distribution and taxonomic characteristics are presented. Most of the species studied have been scarcely recorded throughout the world.
