Abstract
This study considers the taxonomic composition of filamentous fungi in the epibiosis on the shell of the Yesso scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis (Jay, 1856) (Bivalvia), which were collected in open waters of Peter the Great Bay, Sea of Japan. The taxonomic composition was found to include ten species of filamentous fungi, nine of which were identified. The revealed species belong to six genera, viz., Aspergillus, Aphanocladium, Cladosporium, Penicillium, Phialophorophoma, and Eurotium.
