Abstract
The Philippines is known for its environmental diversity due to its ideal climatic conditions. Scientists have studied various species of flora and fauna in the country, including macrofungi. However, not all regions have been studied and explored for macrofungi such as Mount Isarog in Camarines Sur. To add to Philippine macrofungal diversity, this study accounted for naturally occurring macrofungi collected in April 2018 at Consocep Mountain Resort in Tigaon and Mount Isarog National Park in Goa, Camarines Sur. The samples collected were identified based on their morpho-anatomical characteristics, as well as their substrate with the aid of published taxonomic keys. A total of 36 taxa were identified from the two sites and classified under eight orders, 17 families, and 26 genera. Order Polyporales had the most number of specimens. The number of species provided evidence for the high diversity of macrofungal species in the area with most of them attached to bark substrates.
