Some sporocarpic Endogonaceae from eastern Canada

Abstract

The known geographic distributions of Endogone pisiformis, Endogone incrassata, Endogone lactiflua, Glomus macro-carpum, Glomus radiatum, and Glomus vesiculifer (Endogonaceae) are extended into the northwest of mainland Canada. Descriptions and observations of taxonomic and ecological features of these collections are provided. Morphologically, these six fungi resemble collections reported from elsewhere in North America. Azygospores are reported, for the first time in the genus, for Endogone pisiformis.
