CHECKLIST OF DEUTEROMYCETOUS FUNGI OF BANGLADESH 1

ABSTRACT
Earlier biodiversity explorations of Bangladesh have led to enumeration of varied flora and
fauna. However, fungi being an important biodiversity component, and especially, the mycoflora
having potential of impacting human economy and food security, present understanding is needed
to make vision for the future. In this regard, past works (1952-2017) on fungi reported from
Bangladesh were studied. Two hundred and ten species of anamorphic fungi under 51 genera of the
family Dematiaceae are enlisted. The alphabetical checklist of the genera is provided herewith.
Key words: Checklist, Deuteromycetous Fungi, Bangladesh
INTRODUCTION
The Fungi imperfecti or imperfect fungi, also known as Deuteromycota, are fungi
which do not fit into the commonly established taxonomic classifications of fungi that are
based on biological species concepts or morphological characteristics of sexual structures
because their sexual form of reproduction has never been observed; hence the name
"imperfect fungi." Other, more informal names besides Deuteromycota
("Deuteromycetes") and fungi imperfecti are anamorphic fungi, or mitosporic fungi, but
these are terms without taxonomic rank. Anamorphic or conidial fungi are asexually or
mitotically sporulating fungi traditionally classified in the Fungi Imperfecti or the form
taxon Deuteromycotina, with subsidiary form taxa Hyphomycetes and Coelomycetes
(Alexopoulos et al. 1996, Kendrick. 1981 and Anonymous 2017a). The need for
independent classification of anamorphs has always been questioned, and this persists
today. Despite this, anamorphic features have contributed considerably to the elucidation
of fungal taxonomy. Fewer than 5% of described anamorph species have known
teleomorphs, most of which are in the Ascomycota. Numerous fungi are apparently
permanently anamorphic and have lost the capacity to form a teleomorph. There are
about 25,000 species that have been classified in the deuteromycota and many are
basidiomycota or ascomycota anamorphs (Seifert and Gams 2001, Taylor 1995 and
Anonymous.2017b). Bangladesh's alluvial soil is highly fertile, Area and boundaries total
143,998 km2. Latitude: 23°37'N. Longitude: 90°30'E (Anonymous 2017c). Climate of
Bangladesh is suitable for growth and reproduction of various mycroflora in nature as

parasites or saprophytes. Present paper deals with hyphomyceteous fungi found in
Bangladesh from 1952 till date (Ahmed 1952, 1968, Wadud 1962, Talukder 1974, Khan
and Shamsi 1983a. 1983b, 1986, Fakir 1987, Khan et al. 2003, Siddiqui et al. 2007 and
Bakr et al. 2007). Identification and classification of fungi were based on Ellis (1971,
1976), Ellis and Ellis (1997), Barnett and Hunter 1972, 1998 and 2000. Aforesaid
scientists extensively worked on anamorphic fungi and they followed “Saccardean
system of classification”.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The present paper deals with substratum range of 210 species of Mitosporic fungi
(Deamtiaceous Hyphomycetes) reported so far from different habitats of Bangladesh. A
checklist of Deuteromycetous fungi recorded from Bangladesh is compiled on the basis
of published literatures of the Country. The checklist includes detail of the substrata on
which they encountered as far as possible. This data will be useful in the compilation of
fungal biodiversity of Bangladesh.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The Hyphomycetes, like other groups of Deuteromycetes, is an artificial one
composed almost entirely of anamorphic fungi of ascomycete affinity. The majority are
known anamorphs of Ascomycetes, although some have basidiomycete affinities. Several
of the latter are aquatic or aero-aquatic. They lack locular fruit bodies (conidiomata), and
so sporulation occurs on separate or aggregated hyphae, which may or may not be
differentiated; the thallus consists of septate hyphae. About 1400 genera comprising more
than 11,500 species are recognized (Anonymous 2017b).
From 1952 till date, 210 species of anamorphic fungi under 51 genera of the family
Dematiaceae have been recorded from Bangladesh (Ahmed 1952, 1968, Wadud 1962,
Talukder 1974, Khan and Shamsi 1983a. 1983b, 1986, Fakir 1987, Khan et al. 2003 and
Siddiqui et al. 2007 and Bakr et al. 2007). The most frequently collected species of the
genera are Alternaria, Cercospora, Cladosporium, Curvularia, Drechslera, and
Pseudocercospora. The alphabetical checklist of the genera is provided in Table 1.
