A preliminary study on the macroscopic fungi was conducted at the watershed of Aurora Province. Four transect lines were established from 50m to 1040 m asl with 20m x 50m quadrat sampling each transect line (TL) and with an interval of 200m between quadrats. The fungal species within the quadrats along the TL's were collected, identified and recorded. Opportunistic sampling method was also used during the survey. Field sampling of fungi resulted to the identification of 38 families, 68 genera, and 107 species with a total of 684 individuals. Some 91 are basidiomycetes, 14 are ascomycetes, and two are myxomycetes. Results show that Aseroe rubra Labill.,
Fungal species collection was conducted at Taal Volcano Protected Landscape (TVPL) at Talisay area, Batangas, Southern Luzon, Philippines (13.66255 0 N, 121.24797 0 E) from the months of March to August 2012. TVPL has an elevation of 600 meters above sea level. This Protected Area is being considered as one of the most diverse forest ecosystems in CALABARZON region, thereby indicating the need for conservation and protection. This paper aims to document the fungal species in the area. Using transect line (TL) method, four transect lines were established from the baseline (200 masl) toward the peak (600 masl) with 20 m x 30 m quadrat sampling. All in all, 12 quadrats were laid out. The fungal species within the quadrats along the TLs were identified and recorded. Simpson's Index was the Diversity indices used as parameters in assessing fungal species in TVPL Talisay. Opportunistic sampling method was also used during the survey. Field sampling of fungi has resulted to the collection and identification of 75 species belonging to 36 genera and 23 families.
