Background and Aims: Tropical montane cloud forest (TMCF) is one of the most threatened ecosystems worldwide. Natural protected areas (NPAs) have been established to prevent further loss of these forests in Mexico. To assess whether management activities temporally impact the biodiversity of NPAs, the use of indicator groups, such as some groups of...

The taxonomic study presents four aphyllophoroid fungi from the Tamiahua region of Veracruz in a tropical deciduous forest dominated by Quercus oleoides. Gloeodontia discolor, Hydnochaete paucisetigera, and Thelephora dentosa are recorded for the first time for Mexican mycobiota, and Gloiothele lactescens is reported for a new location.

Urbanization poses important environmental, social, and ecological pressures, representing a major threat to biodiversity. However, urban areas are highly heterogeneous, with some greenspaces (e.g., urban forests, parks, private gardens) providing resources and a refuge for wildlife communities. In this study we surveyed 10 taxonomic groups to asse...
