Abstract
Haliphthoros philippinensis sp. nov., isolated from larvae of P. monodon is described and illustrated as new. The fungus grew at a temperature range of 13.5-36.3 C, with the optimum of 29.3-34.5 C. Growth occurred in peptone-yeast extract-glucose broth containing 0.3-7% NaCl, with optimum concentrations of 1-4%. At 8% NaCl concentrations, growth was not observed. Its pH range for growth was 5-11.
