Ascomycetes fungi of the cloud forest in Mexico
An update of the species of Ascomycetes recorded for cloud forest in Mexico is presented. Currently, 107 species of Ascomycetes have been recorded in this type of vegetation, of which 69 are present in Veracruz. The taxa correspond to 18 orders, 29 families, and 52 genera.

description | An update of the species of Ascomycetes recorded for cloud forest in Mexico is presented. Currently, 107 species of Ascomycetes have been recorded in this type of vegetation, of which 69 are present in Veracruz. The taxa correspond to 18 orders, 29 families, and 52 genera. The Xylariaceae is the most diverse family, and Xylaria and Hypoxylon are the genera with the highest number of species. Some of the ecological characteristics of the species were surveyed; it was found that the trophic group of the saprobes is the most diverse, while decaying wood is the substrate where most of the species were found. Regarding the taxonomic diversity of the hosts, 20 families and 22 genera of vascular plants were recorded in association with this group of fungi. At least one family of the fungi recorded in cloud forest (Hyaloscyphaceae) could be considered as recurrent on ferns of the family Cyatheaceae. |

Se presenta una puesta al día de la diversidad de los ascomicetos citados del bosque mesófilo de montaña (BMM) en México. A la fecha se conocen un total de 107 especies de las cuales 69 están presentes en el estado de Veracruz. Los taxa corresponden a 18 órdenes, 29 familias y 52 géneros. La familia Xylariaceae es la más diversa, y los géneros Xylaria e Hypoxylon los mejor representados. Algunas de las características ecológicas de las especies fueron analizadas; se encontró que el grupo trófico de hongos saprobios es el más abundante, mientras que la madera en descomposición es el sustrato donde se encontraron la mayoría de las especies. En cuanto a la diversidad taxonómica de los hospederos, 20 familias y 22 géneros de plantas vasculares se registraron en asociación con este grupo de hongos. Al menos una familia de ascomicetos registrada del bosque mesófilo (Hyaloscyphaceae) podría considerarse recurrente en helechos de la familia Cyatheaceae.
