Sumario:This paper can be considered as a titile contribution to knowledge o f fungal biodiversity in Namibia. Soils, seed dung and some vegetal substrato such as herb, le aves and bark were collected at random in order to investígate the presence o f tropical microfungi and to determine the significance o f some funga! taxa in the Namibian ecosystem. A total o f 49 genera and 80 taxa predominantly anamorph o f Ascomycota was recorded, most o f them (51%) were isolated from soil and many were considered common tropical microfungi. The most representative isolate taxa in all substraía analized or in some o f them were: A lternaría, A spergillus, Aureobasidium, Bipolaris, Chaetomium, Fusarium, Penicillium and Phoma. It is interesting to note in vegetables the presence o f Lasiobolidium spirale, quite a rare species.
