dc.description.abstractThe fungus Aspergillus flavus was observed growing on a 2.1 m long specimen of eel (Thyrsoidea macrurus). Half of the eel was submerged in 5% formalin in a loosely covered specimen jar. The fungus grew on the eel skin as yellowish-green, heavily sporulating patches, with white fluffy younger mycelial outline spreading vigorously. Studies showed that the fresh, healthy specimens which were washed well to remove completely its slime and submerged completely its in the formalin solution for three days and then transferred and kept in half submerged condition and innoculated with fungus afresh and kept loosely covered did not show any fungal growth.
