In order to test the hypothesis that elevation may be an important factor accounting for the distribution of myxomycetes in tropical forests, this project was designed and conducted in Costa Rica. Two lower elevational ...

El estudio de las poblaciones de micetozoos en agroecosistemas con diversas características y grados de disturbio por actividades antropogénicas es un tema con escasa investigación en el nivel mundial. Con el objeto de ...

The most recent checklist of myxomycetes from Costa Rica reported 208 species for the country. Informational gaps detected in that work and a sustained survey effort since the publication of the checklist increased the ...

The myxomycete genus Colloderma and the species Colloderma oculatum are reported for the first time in Central America. The species was recorded at high elevations in the Talamanca Mountain Range in Costa Rica during 2014 ...

There are few published studies providing information about macrofungal biology in a context of forest dynamics in tropical areas. For this study, a characterization of above-ground standing tree biomass and carbon stocks ...

A series of functional variables, including biomass and hymenial area, were obtained for more than 4800 individual macrofungal sporocarps and correlated with a set of ecological parameters characterizing soil, climate ...

Two experiments employing a modified version of the standard “Cavender Method” were used to evaluate the incidence patterns of myxomycete and dictyostelids associated with different soils collected across north and ...

Several studies on myxomycetes in Central America during the last decade have greatly increased the information on the morphological species present in the different countries of that region. Herein we present a list of ...

Antecedentes: La integración entre información biológica y datos sobre la percepción ciudadana de los recursos naturales es clave para construir iniciativas de conservación biológica sensibles a las diferencias ...

Costa Rica es un país pequeño en la región centroamericana, con una reciente historia de investigación micológica. Sin embargo, algunas diferencias comparativas con otros países de la región biológica mesoamericana han ...
