Occurrence of fungi on tissues of the peat swamp palm Licuala longicalycata
The biodiversity of fungi from decaying palm material of Licuala longicalycata was studied following six field collections in May, June, September and November 2001, and February and May 2002. One-hundred and seventy-seven fungal collections were identified to species level, 153 collections to gener...
