Tropical species of Agaricus
2018
Callac, Philippe | Chen, Jie
Agaricus is a large genus of mushrooms including species of nutritional and medicinal interest. With research programs developed over the last decade, a larger diversity of Agaricus came to light. The present review focuses on tropical species of Agaricus and their classification, including a discussion of the definition of tropical species, a brief history of the taxonomic system of classification since 2000, an updated presentation of the revised system including its recent emendation, and the distribution of tropical species in the subgenera and sections of the current system. Tropical species of interest and methods to identify tropical species of Agaricus are also introduced. The new classification system should facilitate studies of tropical Agaricus; however, more investigations in unexplored areas are necessary to complete the classification system and to clarify the evolutionary history of the genus in which climate and geography seem to have been the main factors of diversification.
