Jaisalmer and Barmer have higher similarity (Is = 89.81)followed by Jaisalmer-Bikaner(89.07).Aspergillus fumigatus mostly dominant in the study sites.Jodhpur had higher diversity (H = 3.57)and fair equitability (e = 1.94). Hyphomycetes formed the predominant (84.05) fungal community. Key words: Diversity, soil fungi, Indian Thar Desert.
