Abstract

During the period from July 21 to August 30, 1959, collections of aquatic fungi were obtained from streams, lakes and ponds in the Jackson Hole area. Twenty-three species, representing 16 genera, were collected and identified. These included 10 species of aquatic hyphomycetes not previously reported from the Rocky Mountain region. In addition, a new aquatic hyphomycete was collected. This fungus is either a new species of the genus Margaritispora or the type of a new genus. Project Number 101.
