Abstract
The present mycofloristic
study on amanitoid mushrooms were taken up from Kashmir Himalayas. The
amanitoid species are well represented in this region, as there is a rich
diversity of forests comprising of pure coniferous to mixed coniferous forests.
The present work has been documented to investigate the diversity of amanitoid
agarics which have been collected from various localities of Kashmir Himalayas.
The three lamellate taxa morpho-anatomically described and identified to
species level with the help of classical taxonomy. All these taxa are
supplemented with the field photographs, microphotographs and Camera lucida
drawings. The characterized taxa viz. Amanita ochromaculata and A. ibotengutake, were first
time recorded from India while, A. constricta is a new record for union
territory (UT) of Jammu and Kashmir.
