Synopsis

At ten stations in the upper Tay Estuary, surface water, bottom water and sediment samples were taken on 25 March 1976, 5/6 May 1977, 11 April 1978 and 6 June 1978, and investigated quantitatively for the presence of lower marine fungi, chytrids and higher mycelial fungi by means of the water-culture baiting method with pine pollen. The distribution of fungi is discussed as a function of the physical characteristics of the estuary.
