摘要：Stone objects may support novel communities of microorganisms that are active in bio-deteriorationprocess. Bio-film on the sandstone monuments contains a complex of consortia of Bryophyta and Fungi. TheBryophyta make up the photosynthetic part of the bio-film while hyphae, filaments and spores take part as fungalcomponents. These structures make a dense layer by intertwining over the surface of sandstone monuments. In thepresent investigation 10 samples were collected from different sites of Kala Dera-I temple of Jammu and Kashmir State.The five (05) fungal species were isolated which have dominance over sandstone structures of the monuments. Duringinvestigation period it was observed that Aspergillus sp. was found most dominant followed by Rhizopus sp. Theidentified micro fungi cause discoloration as well as mechanical exfoliation of building stone material that wasanalyzed through mechanical hyphae penetration and production of dark pigments and organic acids
