Description
Summary:Forty six species of fungi, belonging to ten genera of six families, six orders, and four classes of the section Ascomycota (anamorphic genera) were identified. The greatest contribution into the species diversity of investigated water area, as well as maximal frequency of occurrence and density of CFU∙dm-3, belongs to such genera as Aspergillus P. Micheli ex Link (18 species) and Penicillium Link (7). The number of species, frequency of occurrence and density of propagulas of opportunistic fungi in the area was higher than of saprotrophic fungi, especially on the stations situated nearer the bank. During the investigation period we didn’t identify any dependence between propagulas density and such abiotic factors as depth, temperature, salinity of water and distance of the stations from the river’s mouths.
