- Abstract
The aim of this study is to propose the first checklist of Agaricomycetes in the Babors Kabylia (Northern Algeria), thus consisting in a contribution to the national Algerian checklist. Data come from personal mycological researches carried out in the area, especially in cork oak forests. A total of 110 fungal species, belonging into 72 genera, 31 families, 8 orders and 3 groups of Agaricomycetes were identified. Among these, 12 taxa are new to Algeria and some others are considered as rare orrarely seen in the Mediterranean basin. Among the 98 species already known in Algeria, 54 (55%) are members of the hardwood forest ecosystems and 44 (45%) of mixed forests environments. The ecological status of interesting species within the Mediterranean basin is discussed, taking into account the novelties to Algeria, which might change the chorological knowledge of the concerned species.
