Abstract
Agaricus subrufescens (Agaricales, Basidiomycota), an edible species with attributed medicinal properties, has been reported from several countries of the world. This study presents the first record for Ecuador, based on morphological and molecular (ITS-5.8S of DNArn) characterization for one wild specimen collected outside the Puyango Petrified Forest (PPF). This information marks the baseline for future research projects in areas such as the Puyango Petrified Forest, declared National Heritage of Ecuador, to valorise neotropical fungi with commercial potential.
