Biodiv. [online]. 2023, vol.94, e945109.  Epub 29-Jul-2024. ISSN 2007-8706.  https://doi.org/10.22201/ib.20078706e.2023.94.5109.

The fungal diversity in Colima, Mexico has been sparsely studied with only 80 species of non-lichenized macroscopic fungi species and two slime molds reported. Most of the records are from the last century and have focused on the temperate zones of the state. A study of the macroscopic fungi and slime molds diversity in Colima, México is presented, with new records. Samplings were carried-out in 8 localities across 6 municipalities, including urban zones. We add 38 new records of which, 5 correspond to Ascomycota, 21 to Basidiomycota, 12 slime molds. The most well-represented genera in the samplings were Geastrum (5 species) and Didymium (3 species). Geastrum chamelense and Itajahya galericulata constitute the second and the third national records, respectively. The number of records is raised to 106 macroscopic fungal species and 14 slime molds species, with a total of 120 taxa. It is suggested to conduct more extensive sampling in unexplored areas, with an emphasis on the less-studied fungal groups such as ascomycetes and basidiomycetes, such as ramarioid, gasteroid and jelly fungi, as well as cultures in humid chambers for slime molds.
