Eleven species of Drechslera viz. D. australiensis, D. halodes, D. hawaiiensis, D. rostrata, D. sacchari, D. state of Cochliobolus bicolor, D. state of Cochliobolus miyabeanus, D. state of Cochliobolus sativus, D. state of Cochliobolus setariae, D. state of Cochliobolus spicifer and D. state of Trichometaspheria turcica belonging to order Moniliales and group Deuteromycotina were isolated from lentic environment of Shahpura lake, Sarangpani lake and Lower Lake of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh.  Introduction :-  The lake ecosystem is very dynamic one. There were considerable variation in quality and occurrence of fungal flora from lake to lake and season to season.   Bhopal the capital of M.P. also known as Lake city for its various natural as well as artificial lakes and is one of the greenest cities in India.  Shahpura lake, Sarangpani lake and Lower lake are mainly utilized for fish catching and recreation. These lakes are surrounded by human habitation and are used as oxidation ponds. They receives sewage and waste water through a number of unlined drains.  Study of fungal diversity has been taken firstly in these lakes of Bhopal. During the investigation period January 2007 to December 2008, this paper deals with the species of Drechslera viz. D. australiensis, D. halodes, D. hawaiiensis, D. rostrata, D. sacchari, D. state of Cochliobolus bicolor, D. state of Cochliobolus miyabeanus, D. state of Cochliobolus sativus, D. state of Cochliobolus setariae, D. state of Cochliobolus spicifer and D. state of Trichometaspheria turcica belonging to order Moniliales and group Deuteromycotina. Shukla-9 in Jabalpur, Chauhan-3 in Hoshangabad and Singh-10 in Bhopal also reported Drechslera species in aquatic bodies. Work on fungi was previously done by B. Dubey-4 and Preeti Pandey-8 in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh.   Isolation and Identification :-  Water sample with decaying organic matter were collected from upper surface of lakes from four different station in different condition of the three lake at monthly intervals. Special "baiting" technique were used to isolated particular group of fungi from various habitats. Collection, isolation and preservation methods described by webster and Descals-11, Agrawal and Hasija-1 were used. Identification were done upto species level with the help of literature published by Ellis5-6, Barnett and Hunter-2, and Gilman-7.   Description Drechslera australiensis (Fig.1) Conidiophores up to 150 µm long, 3.7µm thick. Conidia ellipsoidal or oblong rounded at the ends, rarely 4-5 pseudosepta, 13-40 µm long, 8-10 µm thick. D. halodes (Fig.2) Conidiophores up to 150 µm long, 5-8 µm thick. Conidia straight, cylindrical, 6-8 pseudosepta, 30-100 µm long, 11-12 µm thick, hilum distinctly protuberant. D. hawaiiensis (Fig.3) Conidiophores up to 120 µm long, 2-7 µm thick. Conidia rounded at the ends, 2-7 pseudoseptate, 12-37x5-11 µm size. D. rostrata (Fig.4) Conidiophores up to 200 µm long, 6-8 µm thick. Conidia rostrate, 6-16 pseudoseptate, dark septa, 40-180 µm long, 14-22 µm thick, hilum distinctly protuberant.

Conidia straight or rarely slightly curved, with 3-14 pseudoseptate, 20-135 x 12-20 µm in size. Hilum flat, dark, 3-5 µm wide. D. state of Cochliobolus miyabeanus (Fig.7). Conidiophore up to 600 µm long, 4-8 µm thick. Conidia curved, 6-14 pseudosepta, 63-153x14-22 µm in size, hilum minute often protruding, slightly papillate. D. state of Cochliobolus sativus (Fig.8). Conidiophore up to 220 µm long, 6-10 µm thick. Conidia 3-12 pseudoseptate, 60-120 µm long and 17-28 µm thick. D. state of Cochliobolus setariae (Fig.9) Conidiophore up to 200 µm long, 5-9 µm thick. Conidia 5-10 pseudoseptate, 45-100 x 10-15 µm in size. D. state of Cochliobolus spicifer (Fig.10). Conidiophore with well defined scars, up to 300 µm long, 4-9 µm thick.

Conidia 4-9 pseudoseptate, 50-144 µm x 18-33 µm in size, hilum distinctly protuberant.  References :- Agrawal, G.P., and Hasija, S.K. (1986).
