The occurence of filamentous fungi in 294 samples of drinking water ta
ken from wells and taps near Bratislava was studied. Fungal contaminan
ts were found in 192 samples (44%). 39 genera and 64 species of soil f
ilamentous fungi were identified by routine isolation and cultivation
methods. Most of them belong to the Deuteromycetes. In the course of f
ungal cultivation in Czapek-Dox agar supplemented with 20 mg . l(-1)te
tracycline, colonies of unknown yellow coloured bacteria were observed
.
