Abstract Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium sp. and Mucor were the common
halotolerant fungi present in salted and dried fish at lower Visakhapatnam coast. The time
required for growth of fungal colony to visible range was different in different types of salted
and dried fish and it also varied with the season. Visible fungal colonies appeared rapidly
in rainy season and it took longest time in winter season. Seasonal variations in the levels
of moisture, sodium chloride, total volatile bases and water activity were also observed.
