The available literature on freshwater fungi is limited. Over the
subsequent years a considerable volume of scientific papers have
appeared scattered throughout numerous journals. There is therefore
no recent synthesis of the subject and this is the objective of the
proposed book. Freshwater habitats are rich in fungi with some
3,000 described species, most of papers focussing on their
identification, substrata they grow on and world distribution.
However, these fungi play an important role in the freshwater
ecosystem, and are primarily involved in the breakdown of leaf
litter contributing food for detritus feeders. Our book will bring
together a wide range of acclaimed mycologists to review recent
developments on the biology and ecology of freshwater fungi,
particularly their molecular phylogeny, biodiversity, causative
diseases of freshwater amphibians, fishes and invertebrate animals,
decomposition of leaf litter, stream pollution and their potential
role in bioremediation.
