| Sumario: | In Mexico, human consumption of edible fungi has
occurred since the time of the Pre Columbian cultures. Historians
of the sixteenth century and beyond have described the use of fungi
as well as the manner in which they were classified. Presently, in the
rural areas of Mexico, more than two hundred edible varieties are
registered as being harvested, with different ethnic groups having a
vast knowledge about them.
The present study took place in the Valley of Toluca, with the
intention of understanding the phenomena of harvesting fungi, as
well as the process of their commercialization.
The study took place from 1994 to 1996, taking into account
four trips accompanying harvesters in the Valley as well as in
mountains bordering the valley, and in three markets. Of the thirty
four taxa encountered, all had been reported previously an
indication of their persistence. |
