ABSTRACT
Aeromicrospora studies on Abydos Temple at Upper Egypt were carried out monthly for one year by means of the exposed plate-method. Aspergillus [A. niger], Cladosporium [C. cladosporoides] and Alternaria [A. alternata] were the most common fungi; while, Bacillus [B. Licheniformis] and Micrococcus [M. roseus] were the most common bacteria. The total counts to microflora [fungi and bacteria] showed seasonal fluctuations, the maxima were recorded in summer and the minima in winter months. Outdoor total counts of aerospora exceeded those indoors during most months of the year. The results provide information for diagnosis of allergic diseases and conservation of antiquities objects
