Study of the effect of different techniques on diversity of freshwater hyphomycetes in the River Nile (Upper Egypt).
Four different techniques were applied, lead mapping of Eucalptus rostrata; randomly leaf sampling; Millipore filtration; spores in foam, for the study of aquatic hyphomycets communities in the River Nile. Triscelophorus monlosporus, Anguilospora longissima, Flagellospora curvula and Tetracladium marchalianum were the dominant species in all the techniques used. Aquatic hyphomycetes diversity was high by using leaf mapping (23 species) and randomly leaf sampling (30 species) but it was low by using Millipore filtration (11 species) and spores in foam (8 species) techniques.
