Abstract

This study has been made on
the specimens which were obtained from 11 different station areas of Selcen
Mountain and its close environs in 2011-2012. The samples were acquired from
barks of trees, leaves and the materials of decayed trees. These materials were
employed the Moist Chamber Culture and it was tried to develop myxomycetes
sporophore. In addition myxomycetes were obtained from natural environment. As
a result of field and laboratory studies 57 taxa belonging to 10 families and
21 genera were identified, and they were added to the Turkish Myxobiota.
