Thermophilic fungi isolated from a heated aquatic habitat
The cooling pond for the Hazelwood Power Station, Morwell, Victoria, Australia, was studied for the presence of thermophilic fungi. A total of five species was recorded: Chaetomium thermophile, Aspergillus fumigatus, Humicola grisea, Humicola insolens, and Thermomyces lanuginosus. (ACR)
