摘要：Little is known of wood-inhabiting aphyllophoroid fungi in some Mexican territories. The State ofAguascalientes is an example: there have been few records of these fungi until now. The main objective of this studyis to provide a preliminary inventory of the wood-inhabiting aphyllophoroid species of the state. The fieldwork wascarried out by sampling the principal plant communities during the main period of basidiomata production in 2011. Apreliminary list of 81 species is presented, 55 of these recorded for the first time in the state. Additionally, a non-metricmultidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis was conducted to explore the fungal communities. Based on the vegetation,3 significantly differentiated aphyllophoroid community groups were identified: temperate forests, scrublands anddeciduous tropical forest. The highest species richness was found in oak forests.
