abstract = {Aquatic hyphomycetes plays a key role in leaf litter decomposition and are mediators of organic matter turnover in streams. Molecular studies have pointed that some aquatic fungi are also plant endophytes, however more evidences are needed for their multiple ecological abilities. To date, little information is available on fungal lineages that might have undergone convergent evolution to adapt to multiple mode of life. We examined the phylogenetic relationship and evolutionary divergence between aquatic hyphomycetes, endophytic aquatic hyphomycetes and other fungal endophytes of riparian/terrestrial plants by exploring ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 rRNA gene sequences retrieved from National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). It is revealed that sequences with close phylogenetic affinity to aquatic fungi can occur as endophytes in the terrestrial plants far from the stream-sides. To propel the study of fungal ecology, we need to assign a vast ecological niche for aquatic fungi and further its ecological role has to be thoroughly explored.}
