Description Production of amylase and acid protease by solid state fermentation employing Aspergillus niger strain S14, a mangrove isolate was evaluated. Wheat bran containing 60% moisture was used for fermentation with two inoculum sizes of 2x106 and 40x106 spores 10 g substrate-1. The maximum amylase activity of 48.13 Ugdfs-1 was recorded after an incubation period of 4 days at temperature 30 0C and pH 4.8 for the inoculum size 40x106 spores 10 g substrate-1. The concentration of reducing sugar showed a significant negative correlation (-0.496, p
