Abstract

In this research 32 species of gasteroid fungi (Agaricomycetes) of 10 locations in the
central plains of the Sonoran Desert during the four seasons in three types of vegetation were
studied. The orders included are: Agaricales: (26 spp.) and Geastrales (6 spp.). Tulostoma,
Geastrum and Disciseda were the genera well represented. New records for Mexico are:
Geastrum mammosum and Tulostoma subsquamosum. The highest number of species was
observed in winter (26) and spring (13). The greatest diversity was recorded in microphyllous
desert scrub (26 spp.), followed by sarcocaule scrub (21) and mezquital (17).
