Abstract
Sterilized leaf pieces of banyan (Ficus bengalensis), cashew (Anacardium occidentale), coffee (Coffea arabica), mango (Mangifera indica) and rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) were submerged in the Konaje stream. Sixteen species of hyphomycete colonized the leaves. All colonized banyan leaves, but only six species colonized cashew. Ingoldiella hamata, Lunulospora curvula, Triscelophorus acuminatus, T. monosporus and T. konajensis colonized all leaf species, but Alatospora acuminata, Dactylella oviparasitica, Pyramidospora casuarinae and P. constricta colonized only banyan leaves. L. curvula, T. monosporus and T. konajensis were found to be the major colonizers. More hyphomycetes were encountered during the monsoon and post-monsoon periods than during dry periods.
