| Summary: | Guerrero is one of the least studied states in Mexico for Fungi, despite its great diversity of vascular plants. The aim of this work was to update previously reported genera, provide new records from Guerrero and discuss the biocultural significance and potential use of Boletales from Guerrero, Mexico. Astraeus morganii Phosri, Watling & M.P. Martín is recorded for the first time in Mexico. Sixty‑eight species of Boletales reported from Guerrero with an annotated checklist, which includes photographs; 34 species are newly recorded from Guerrero. The family Boletaceae is the most diverse followed by Suillaceae and Scleroderma taceae. Aureoboletus russellii (Frost) G. Wu & Zhu L. Yang, Aureoboletus readii Ayala‑Vásquez, Pérez‑Moreno, Martínez‑Reyes, Carbajal‑Ramírez, Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca (Wulfen) Maire ex Martin‑Sans, Scleroderma texense Berk., and Tylopilus tabacinus (Peck) Singer are reported as having biocultural importance to Nahuatl, Na Savi, and Me’phaa native cultures. In addition, 45 species of Boletales are reported as potentially edible. |
