Abstract

Kanchanaburi province is located in western of Thailand, which is a large area with a wide varieties of living organisms, because of the extreme variations in climatical and geographical conditions. The aim of research was to study seasonal and climate changes on biodiversity of macrofungi in community forest at Sai Yok district, Kanchanaburi province.
The biodiversity of macrofungi is important for future comparison to understand the fungal biodiversity. This research was performed during dry and wet season in 2016.
Macrofungi were collected and morphological identified according to their macro and microscopic structures. Fifteen species were found including thirteen saprophytic macrofungi and two mycorrhizal mushroom. In addition, the result revealed that seven species (46.66 %) is an edible mushroom. It suggested that these edible mushroom can be consumed in dailylife of local people living in this area, and seasonal and climate changes were directly affected to macrofungi biodiversity.
