The fungal communities of Avicennia marina and Rhizophora mucronata were studied and results were evaluated in term of occurrence distribution and dominance of fungal species. Species of Alternaria marina, Aspergillus spp., Chaetomium spp., Cladosporium spp., Fusarium spp., and Penicillium spp., were found to be the most constituent mycoflora of intertidal mud and water. The mangrove examined revealed a preponderance population of Deuteromycotina whereas Ascomycotina and Mastigomycotina were poorly represented. The results of the study lead us to the conclusion that mangrove swamp is a potential habitat for fungal inhabitation.
