Abstract

Several different fossil fungi are described from silicified peat deposits collected in Antarctica. Some are characterized by the presence of an interwoven hyphal wall layer surrounding a central cavity devoid of contents. Others show an outer wall layer which is composed of isodiametric cells and a thin acellular inner layer which surrounds membranous sacs or globose spores. The structures of these fossils are interpreted and potential relationships discussed.
