Abstract

The present paper investigates deuteromycetous fungi on the petro-polluted soil. These are conducted by the enumeration of the fungal population and the identification. Fungus observation physico-chemical analysis of soil and identification of the soil fungi. The soil sample examined for isolating fungi from petroleum contaminated site. Identified as Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, Rhizopus, Mucor, Cladosporium, Morssonina Chaetomium, Curvularia, Helminthosporium, Alternaria and Trichoderma Species. The isolation of filamentous fungi in environments containing oil or its sub products found a very similar diversity of genera to that found in our study. Petro-polluted site the growth of fungal diversity was higher due to more carbon concentration.
