Aqualinderella fermentans Emerson et Weston in surface waters of Northeastern Poland

The rare fungus Aqualinderella fermentans was recorded from the fruits and seeds of 24 species of plants in nine bodies of water of various trophic states in northeastern Poland. This species was recorded for the first time in Polish waters and for the second time in Europe. Our study shifts the range of Aqualinderella fermentans to the north (53°52’N, 22°58’E) from the subtropical and tropical zones where it is known to occur.
