MEDEL, Rosario; CASTILLO, Ranulfo; MARMOLEJO, José e BAEZA, Yajaira. Analysis of the Pezizaceae family (Pezizales: Ascomycota) in Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2013, vol.84, suppl., pp.21-38. ISSN 2007-8706. https://doi.org/10.7550/rmb.31741.
We present a review of the family Pezizaceae in Mexico. The first record of a Peziza dates from 1875, when Cooke recorded Peziza cordovensis. To date, this family is represented by 7 genera containing 29 species, of which the genus Peziza is the most diverse with 18 species, followed by genus Pachyphloeus with 4. Five species of the 29 species listed are considered doubtful. Of the 7 genera recorded, 3 are hypogeous (Hydnobolites, Mattirolomyces y Pachyphloeus), 1 is epigeous and semi-hypogeous (Sarcosphaera) and 4 are ectomycorrhizal. We found 3 edible species: Sarcosphaera coronaria (edible when young), Peziza badia (edible only after boiling) and P. phyllogena (edible without indications). The species are distributed in 15 states, being Distrito Federal with more records. We found 6 vegetation types with records of this family, from which the mixed forest has more species (20). Two keys were developed for the identification of genera of Pezizaceae known from Mexico and for Peziza, as the genus with more species recorded.
