State, India. Mycosphere 4(1), 97–131, Doi 10.5943 /mycosphere/4/1/6
A literature-based checklist of agarics (gilled mushrooms) occurring in Kerala State, India is provided.
It consists of 616 species of gilled mushrooms belonging in 112 genera and 5 orders (Agaricales,
Boletales, Gomphales, Polyporales, Russulales) of the Class Agaricomycetes, Phylum Basidiomycota.
The relevant original information is contained in about 122 papers, many with only limited distribution
and availability. Most of these papers have been published during the last two decades. The
geographical distribution of the reports covers all 14 districts of the State. At the order level, Agaricales
has the highest number of species (579), followed by Russulales (21). The six most represented genera
are Hygrocybe, Entoloma (41 spp. each), Lepiota (39 spp.), Marasmius (27 spp.), Leucocoprinus and
Pluteus (22 spp. each). Several of the species are known only from the region and there is a possibility
that many are endemic to the region as the level of endemism in the flora and fauna of Kerala is very
high. This list covers only a part of the actual diversity of gilled mushrooms in Kerala as studies on the
agarics of this region have been uneven, inadequate and therefore inconclusive.
Key words – Agaricomycetes – Basidiomycota – biodiversity – species

Introduction
Kerala State is a narrow strip of land on
the south-west corner of the Indian Peninsula.
It lies between north latitudes 8°18' and 12°48'
and east longitudes 74°52' and 72°22' and is
wedged between the Arabian Sea of the Indian
Ocean and a mountain range called the
Western Ghats. Most of the forested areas of
the State are parts of the Western Ghats, which
is one of the biodiversity hotspots of the world
that has been very recently added to the World
Heritage list. The State’s total area is 38, 863
sq km, which is only about 1.8% of the total
geographical area of India. Yet, almost a
quarter of India's plant species are found in
Kerala. Among the 4,667 vascular plant
species of the State (Sasidharan 2004), 344 are
endemic (Reddy et al. 2007). The very high
biological diversity of Kerala is primarily due
to the highly diversified ecological niches that
occur from sea level up to more than 2,600
meters above sea level encompassing
evergreen forests (wet evergreen and semievergreen climax forests, west coast tropical
evergreen forests, southern hill top tropical
evergreen forests and semi-evergreen forests),
deciduous forests (secondary dry deciduous
forests, southern dry deciduous forests,
secondary moist deciduous forests and dry
deciduous forests), shola forests, grasslands,
mangroves, and the subtypes such as dry teak
forests, lateritic semi-evergreen forests, littoral
forests, myristica swamps, Nilgiri subtropical
hill forests, south Indian subtropical hill

savannah, southern moist mixed deciduous
forests, southern secondary moist mixed
deciduous forests, and very moist teak forests.
The climate of Kerala is tropical, maritime and
monsoonal.
It is obvious from the above account
that Kerala must be harbouring a luxuriant
mycota. However, to this day, the region has
not been explored for many groups of fungi.
Diversity of only very few groups of fungi
such as soil microfungi, foliicolous microfungi,
polypores, marine fungi, and lichens have been
studied at least at a preliminary level. There are
several reasons for this scenario, the scarcity of
trained mycologists in the State being a major
one. One group of fungi that has been rather
intensively explored in the past three decades
in this region by several workers is the agarics
or gilled mushrooms. In order to consolidate
the information so far made available on the
diversity of agarics of this region and to
contribute to the knowledge of mycota of
Kerala, here we provide a literature-based
checklist of agarics occurring in Kerala State.
Gilled mushrooms are a morphologically
discernable and not a taxonomically coherent
group and hence they belong to several orders
such as Agaricales, Boletales, Gomphales,
Polyporales and Russulales of the Class
Agaricomycetes of the Phylum Basidiomycota.
Methods
This checklist contains information
gathered solely from published sources up to
31 December 2011. We have excluded all
material presented only in Masters, MPhil and
PhD dissertations and not subsequently
published. Also, we have not listed species
identified in the original sources only to genus
level (e.g. Cortinarius sp.). No herbaria data
are given in this checklist as that information is
available in the references indicated. However,
it must be noted that several mycological
herbaria in Europe (e.g. Royal Botanic
Gardens, Kew–K, Nationaal Herbarium
Nederland, Leiden–L) and North America (e.g.
Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago–F,
New York Botanical Garden–NY) contain a
significant number of agaric collections from
Kerala. The systematic arrangement and the
nomenclature used are those of Index
Fungorum
(www.indexfungorum.org)
as
th
accessed on 25 November 2012. In this
checklist, the names of some species as
reported in the cited publications have been
replaced by currently accepted name according
to
the
Species
Fungorum
website
(www.speciesfungorum.org) and this has been
indicated in such cases. Invalidly proposed new
species from the region are excluded from this
list. The checklist is organized alphabetically
by order, family, genus and species.
Results and Discussions
Table 1 lists 616 species of gilled
mushrooms belonging in 112 genera and 5 orders
(Agaricales, Boletales, Gomphales, Polyporales
and Russulales) of the Class Agaricomycetes of
the Phylum Basidiomycota reported as occurring
in Kerala State on the basis of published
information. The relevant original information is
contained in about 122 papers, many with only
limited distribution and availability. Most of
these papers have been published during the last
two decades. The geographical distribution of the
reports covers all the 14 districts of the State (see
Fig 1.) At the order level, Agaricales has the
highest number of species (579), followed by
Russulales (21). The six most represented genera
are Hygrocybe, Entoloma (41 spp. each), Lepiota
(39 spp.), Marasmius (27 spp.), Leucocoprinus
and Pluteus (22 spp. each). Several of the listed
species (138) were described as new to science
and so far many of them are known only from
Kerala. There is a possibility that many are
endemic to the region as the level of endemism in
the flora and fauna of Kerala is very high.
Although the list displayed in Table 1
might appear extensive, it covers only a part of
the actual diversity of gilled mushrooms in
Kerala. For example, although only six species of
the genus Mycena are listed in this checklist, a
work in progress in our lab has unravelled about
50 species of that genus, most of which are new
to science and remain to be published. The five
most speciose genera listed earlier happened to
be so because they benefitted from focussed and
exclusive treatments. Most surveys have been
conducted in a few, accessible areas of the State
and several of the dense forests of the State have
not been adequately explored for agarics. In
short, the studies on the agarics of this region
have been uneven, inadequate and therefore
inconclusive.
