Abstract

During an investigation of Taiwan Zygomycetes, Absidia cylindrospora var. nigra, A. heterospora, and A. pseudocylindrospora were isolated from soil samples and identified as new records of Taiwan. This study collected soil samples and herbivore's dung from all around the island. Identification of Absidia species was based on the optimal growth temperature and morphological characters such as colony color, spore size and shape along with number of sporangiophores per whorl. These three species are mesophilic fungi with optimal growth temperature around 25℃.
