Abstract

Gasteroid fungi associated with seven different vegetation types in the Ajos-Bavispe
National Forest Reserve and Wildlife Refuge were seasonal sampled over one-year period.
Forty-two species representing the families Geastraceae (14), Agaricaceae (25),
Diplocystidiaceae (1) and Sclerodermataceae (2) were determined in the 10 sampled
localities. Astraeus hygrometricus and Crucibulum laeve were the most widely distributed;
but most species showed a restricted distribution. The most species-rich genus was Geastrum
with 13 taxa. The highest number of species was found in pine-oak wood (20) and mezquital
(15), and the lower in oak open wood (2) and subtropical scrub (3). All determined species
are new records for the studied area, while Geastrum arenarius and Lycoperdon decipiens for
the Mexican mycobiota
