title: Environmental fungus flora in quail-breeding farms.
abstract: An investigation was made of the environmental fungus flora in a quail-bleeding farm during a period of 5 months (May-September 1978). A total of 5826 colonies were obtained. The genera encountered most frequently were Aspergillus (28.96%), Penicillium (21.21%), Scopulariopsis (16.84%), and Aureobasidium (13.90%). Of the Aspergillus species, A. fumigatus was isolated the most often (12.61%) of the total). The different fungal species were variously distributed according to the production zones and age of the animals in which they were found.
