| Abstract | ||
| The mycotic inhabitants of both control and treated snails were surveyed at the 7th and 15th day interval. The highest number of zoosporic species (16) were collected from control samples. The highest population of zoosporic fungi was collected from Biomphalaria alexandrina, the lowest from Bulinus truncatus. Achlya, Dictyuchus and Saprolegnia were the common genera. The Total colonies of zoosporic fungi were lowered after 15 days of treatment. Both of zoosporic and terrestrial fungi were affected markedly by copper sulphate than Bayluscide. On the other hand the collective counts of some terrestrial fungi were increased in the second period of (15 days) of snail treatment. Asp < /em>ergillus, Cladosporium and Penicillium were the most prevalent genera. The two molluscicides affected more on the mortality of Biomphalaria alexandrina than Bulinus truncatus. They aslo affected on the cell division of both tested snails. | ||
