Fungal communities associate with roots play an important role in nutrient cycle, supporting plant growth and the biocontrol of plant diseases. This paper has evaluated the rhizospheric soil mycoflora in the Gibbon wildlife sanctuary and its surrounding area and a comparative study between these locations. Identification and characterization was done by the help of standard protocols. All total 16 nos. of fungal species have observed during the studies. The Aspergillus shows as the dominant mycoflora in both the location. Four species have found in Aspergillus group i.e. A. niger, A. fumigatus, A. variecolor and A. clavatus. In all locations same fungal species were found, but vary in their percentage of occurrence.
