Abstract

Fungal colonies sporulating on 71 kinds of leaves that fell during the dry season in the Tai National Park (Ivory Coast) were analysed. A consistent connection between certain fungal species and their substrata was detected among the 184 fungal species that were identified. Each fungal species was characterized according to morphological and ecological features. Multidimensional scaling showed that certain ubiquitous and common species have morphological characters distinguishing them from specialised species.
