Abstract
Associations of 41 species of fungi isolated form 858 samples (feathers, nests, pellets, and droppings) of free—living birds were evaluated using Jaccard's coefficient and a "half—linkage" clustering method. Eleven clusters of the fungi was established, 3 of which were singletons. Representative species of the individual groups were Alternaria alternata with Cladosporium herbarum; Chaetomium funicolum with Chaetomium globosum; Arthroderma ciferrii with Scopulariopsis brevicaulis; Aphanoascus fulvescens with Chrysosporium keratinophilum; Penicillium chrysogenum with Trichoderma viride; Arthroderma curreyi; Gliocladium roseum with Trichothecium roseum, Mucor pusillus, Aspergillus flavus, Gymnoascus reessii, and Rhizopus nigricans.
