Abstract

SummaryThree fungi and a monad‐like protozoan have been found living in the vegetative cells of Ceratium hirundinella (O. F. Müll.) Bergh. and C. furcoides (Levander) Langhans in Windermere, Esthwaite Water and Blelham Tarn, lakes in the English Lake District. The life‐histories of two, hitherto unknown, biflagellate fungi are described and one is named as a new species, Aphanomycopsis cryptica. Based on the long‐term examination of phytoplankton samples, the occurrence of these fungi as well as Amphicypellus elegans Ingold is presented for 26 years. The effects of some fungal epidemics on populations of Ceratium are discussed.
