Boletoid fungi (Boletaceae, Basidiomycota) of the Bidoup – Nui Ba National Park (Vietnam)

Abstract

Data on the diversity of boletoid fungi of the Bidoup – Nui Ba National Park are presented here and analyzed. An annotated list of 13 species are published for the first time for the National Park and 8 for the first time for Vietnam (Porphyrellus nigropurpureus, Phylloporus pachycystidiatus, Ph. rubiginosus, Pulveroboletus brunneopunctatus, Strobilomyces brunneolepidotus, S. calidus, Veloporphyrellus pseudovelatus, Xerocomus subparvus). Among plant communities of the National Park the mountain evergreen coniferous-broad-leaved forests dominated by Fagaceae, Lauraceae and Magnoliaceae and with the participation of representatives of Podocarpaceae and Pinaceae are characterized by the highest diversity of boletoid fungi. The species are illustrated with color photographs. The nucleotide sequences obtained during the study were deposited in NCBI GenBank.
