Aporte a la diversidad de macrohongos (Ascomycetes y Basidiomycetes) presentes en el sendero ecológico de la quebrada las delicias (Chapinero, Bogotá D.C.)

Abstract

Despite the abundance of fungi and the role they play in ecosystems, they have been little studied, so it is important that the identification studies in these organizations not only have an academic production approach, but additionally it is urgent that they be informative. Therefore, a research work was carried out which was developed in the ecological path of Quebrada las Delicias, located in the western foothills of the eastern hills, whose sampling was between the july 2018 until april 2019. This was organized in two phases methodological: one of taxonomic determination and another of disclosure (Which includes the socialization of research and development of a catalog). The results thrown showed that the species with the greatest abundance of fruiting bodies was the Laccaria laccata (With a total of 3718 copies); it was also observed that, in the months of october and april, due to the increase in rainfall, the number of fructifications rose significantly compared to the other months. It was concluded that the indices of abundance and wealth were greater in transects 4 and 5 that are found and higher and precipitation confirming that these are the variables that allow greater fruiting. It is recommended to do more work with the community since there was a positive approach between the community and the Quebrada, which is important in terms of ownership and care of the territory. This work generates a contribution to the knowledge of the macro fungi present in Bogotá D.C. Additionally, species such as Cordierites frondosa, Resupinatus trichotis and genera such as Postia sp., Antrodia sp. It also contributes to the rapprochement with the community and scientific research, publicizing the diversity of fungi present in this path and the ecosystem resources they offer.
