Nematode‐capturing hyphomycetes were isolated from soil and plant debris on the south slope of a hill in the Jurassic of Upper Bavaria. The following species were found: Arthrobotrys arthrobotryoides, A. dactyloides, A. oligospora, A. superba, Dactylella astenopaga, Monacrosporium cionopagum, M. psychrophilum . Endozoic fungal parasites of nematodes were not isolated. With one fungal propagule of nematode‐destroying fungi in 1.7 g soil, the density is only slightly lower than values given for agricultural soils.
