Abstract

Abstract.Driftwood, prop roots and other mangrove samples were collected from the intertidal regions of Brillant and Anse Boileau mangrove stands, in the Seychelles. This material was examined for the presence of higher marine fungi. Forty seven species of marine fungi were collected (37Ascomycotina, 1Basidiomycotina, 9 Deuteromycotina), withHalocypluna villosuthe most common fungus, whileAniptodera mungrovii, Antennospora quudricorruita, Halosarpheia marina, Ascomyccte sp. (4), andLulworthiu grandisporawere collected frequently. The mycota of the two mangrove stands arc compared. A list of fungi recorded from mangroves is compiled.
