Abstract
Analysis of soil samples collected in the rhizosphere of Agave karwinskii in the Central Valleys of Oaxaca, Mexico, revealed an undescribed species of Racocetra that possesses ornamented spores. The ornamentation on the outer layer of the external spore wall consisted
of rounded and elongated processes, which are organized in such a way that they look like chromosomes. Therefore, the new species was named Racocetra cromosomica. It is the first species of Racocetraceae (Gigasporales) described from Oaxaca, one of the Mexican states having
the greatest floristic diversity.
