Abstract Halotolerant fungi viz., Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, Penicillium sp., Mucor sp., and Wallemia sebi were isolated from salted and dried fish samples from the coast of Andhra pradesh. A. niger was the most common fungus during rainy season in all places. Visible fungal growth appeared on the fish and the growth was rapid in rainy season, but it took no longer time in winter. Seasonal variations in the levels of moisture, sodium chloride, total volatile base nitrogen and water activity were also observed.
