Abstract

A survey was conducted to study the biodiversity as well as the distribution of wild mushrooms, which naturally grow, in different localities, at different seasons, in the southern region of Bangladesh. A total 24 species of mushrooms belonging to 17 genera and 14 families were identified. Those mushrooms were collected between July and October, 2013 and 2014, accordingly from 16 sub-districts of Barisal, Patuakhali, Borguna, Pirojpur, Jhalokhathi districts, which situated in the southern region of Bangladesh. The identified genera were viz., Amanita sp., Agaricus sp., Ganoderma sp., Armillaria sp., Coprinus sp., Cortinarius sp., Hebeloma sp., Mycena sp., Lepiota sp., Lycoperdon sp., Macrolepiotia sp., Daldinia sp., Tuber sp., Volvariella sp., Steccherinum sp., Hypholoma sp. and Coprinellus sp. Moreover, the maximum frequency of occurrence in this survey was exhibited by Ganoderma applanatum, Amanita vaginata and Agaricus silvicola (18.75%), whereas, the maximum density was recorded for Coprinus silvaticus (48.83%). The collected specimens were deposited to SAU herbarium of mushroom flora (SHMF).
