Abstract

Based on 18 recently collected specimens, 12 herbarium specimens and extensive literature research, a preliminary checklist of the Gasteromycetes of Panama is presented. Nine species are reported for the first time for Panama: Bovista oblongispora, Calostoma cinnabarinum, Calvatia rosacea, Crucibulum laeve, Cyathus limbatus, Morganella velutina, Mutinus argentinus, Radiigera taylorii and Sphaerobolus stellatus. In addition, an unknown species related to Radiigera is recorded. Known locations and descriptions of 33 species currently known for Panama are given, together with taxonomical and nomenclatural discussions, where necessary.
