Abstract

.               The present study was conducted with the samples
collected in 10 different stations in Kırıkhan district and vicinity in
2012-2014. The samples were collected from tree barks, leaves, wood and other
decayed plant material. The collected materials were used in Moist Chamber
Culture to develop myxomycetes sporophores. Furthermore, myxomycetes were
collected from their natural environment. In the field and laboratory studies,
45 taxa in 10 families and 22 genera were identified.

Keywords
