There are many islands in the Iranian waters, but little is known about their coral species. This is a first attempt to describe and illustrate the coral species occurring in Abu-Musa and Sirri Islands. Overall, 26 species belonging to 9 families are reported, and three unidentified species and two species are added to coral communities of Iran. This study also provides overall insight on coral fauna in the Persian Gulf.

Background And Purpose: Keratinophilic fungi are among the important groups of fungi living in the soil. This study aimed to isolate and identify keratinophilic fungi from the soil of three Iranian islands, namely Greater Tunb, Abu Musa, and Sirri, located in the Persian Gulf using morphological and molecular (polymerase chain reaction) methods.
Materials And Methods: In this study, a total of 60 soil samples were collected from the three islands of Greater Tunb, Abu Musa, and Sirri.
