Marasmius Fr., fructification, climatic factors, forest remmants, Ecoregion LachuáAbstract
Fungi of genus Marasmius Fr. are important litter decomposers and reported as abundant in tropics. Lachuá Ecoregion is the largest remaining tropical forests in Guatemala, and the most threatened by habitat loss due to the agricultural advance. It has been determined that
over the past five years 75% of the original coverage outside protected areas in the ecoregion has been lost. This loss is mainly attributed to increased agriculture activity. These changes caused by the loss of plant cover influence the microclimatic conditions that depend on fungi to reproduce. This study is the first approach to understand how this group of fungi respond to currency fluctuations caused by changes in climatic conditions and vulnerability to habitat loss. Relationship of temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, temporality and patch
size with Marasmius fruit bodies production were evaluated. The study was carried out in eight forest patches in the rainy season in 2010 and 2011 in Lachuá Ecoregion. 98 specimens of 56 morphospecies and 2 species were colected. The highest cumulative richness (r) and cumulative frequency (a) of fruit bodies were presented in June (r =16, a = 21) and Santa Lucia Lachuá locality (r =15, a = 16). Marasmius composition is influenced by temporality. June to August were the months with higher number of shared species, decreasing considerably in October and November. No change was observed in Marasmius composition allied to patch size, however spatially there is a difference between patches surrounded by coverage areas and patches surrounded by open areas. This shows that genera responds to changes in habitat. These changes in cumulative richness and abundance of fungi over time and space, can be used as disturbance indicators. This information allows proposed monitoring of this genera
over time to produce a management plan for the area.
