Abstract

The Philippines is considered one of the world’s megahotspots of biodiversity. Among the country’s fungal species, about 4,698 species belonging to 1,031 genera are currently known or described, of which only a small number of myxomycetes were included. At the UPLB-MNH Mycological Herbarium, one of the country’s premier depository institutions of fungal collections, only about 446 myxomycete specimens were recorded. In this review paper, progress made in myxomycete diversity in the Philippines is reported. The conservation status of the myxomycetes specimens deposited at the UPLB-MNH Mycological Herbarium is also assessed. Furthermore, hindrances to the discovery of new myxomycete species and challenges encountered by local researchers are also discussed.

uvb自然历史博物馆(uvb - mnh)真菌学标本室黏菌收藏现状

菲律宾被认为是世界上生物多样性的超级热点之一。在我国的真菌种类中，目前已知或描述的约有4698种，隶属于1031属，其中仅包括少数黏菌。在uvb - mnh真菌学标本馆，该国首屈一指的真菌收藏机构之一，只有约446黏菌标本被记录。本文综述了菲律宾黏菌多样性的研究进展。对保存在UPLB-MNH真菌学标本室的黏菌标本的保存状况也进行了评估。此外，还讨论了发现黏菌新种的障碍和当地研究人员遇到的挑战。
