LARA-VAZQUEZ, Fidel; ROMERO-CONTRERAS, Alejandro T.  y  BURROLA-AGUILAR, Cristina. Traditional knowledge regarding wild mushrooms in the otomí communities of San Pedro Arriba, Temoaya, Estado de México. agric. soc. desarro [online]. 2013, vol.10, n.3, pp.305-326. ISSN 1870-5472.

Wild mushrooms today constitute a non-woody forest resource in different peasant communities during the rainy season, due to their great cultural, dietary and economic importance. This research was performed with the objective of identifying the traditional knowledge and family management of the main species of wild mushrooms in the community of San Pedro Arriba, Temoaya, Estado de México. Informal interviews were applied in the municipal township market with mushroom sellers; we also visited forest sites with families devoted to mushroom picking; and, lastly, we visited the community to apply a questionnaire to its inhabitants. Regarding species, 86 were observed, of which 25 were placed at the level of genus and 61 at the level of species, recognizing 221 names in Spanish and 35 in Otomí, with the simple primary names being the best represented. The species with greatest cultural importance were Helvetia lacunosa, Lactarius deliciosus and Gomphus floccosus. Finally, the forms of mushroom exploitation by community families, the acquisition of this knowledge, the ecological knowledge, the collection and sale process, and their use, were identified.

Palabras llave : ethnomycology; macromycetes; traditional names.
