Sundarban (Mangrove), the largest tidal halophytic forest in the world lies a little south to the Tropic of Cancer between the latitudes 21°30'N and 22°30'N, and longitudes 89°00'E and 89°55'E. This forest is the greatest source of diverse xylotrophic fungi. In a survey program 20 species of xylotrophic fungi belongs to 13 genera were identified under seven families such as Polyporaceae, Ganodermataceae, Hymenochaetaceae, Fomitopsidaceae, Xylariaceae, Steccherinaceae and Gloeophyllaceae. The predominant genera were Ganoderma, Trametes and Inonotus. The maximum frequency (75%) was recorded for Daedaleopsis confragosa and 50% for Trametes elegans, Trametes conchifer, Polyporus sanguineus, Ganoderma curtisii and Irpex lacteus. The maximum density was 31.82% for Pycnoporus sanguineus which was found on the Sundari (Heritiera fomes) tree. This is the first detailed investigation on Xylotrophic fungi in mangrove forest regions of Bangladesh.

The present research investigation was conducted by a systematic survey in the mangrove forest regions of Bangladesh that covers maximum part of mangrove forest regions with the objective of identifying the mushrooms up to the genus and species level. Man has lived in a hunter-gatherer society for most of the time since their origin and has depended entirely on biodiversity for their sustenance

Collection Site Mangrove (Sundarbans) forest regions of Bangladesh is located between the latitudes 21°30'N and 22°30'N, and longitudes 89°00'E and 89°55'E belongs to Bagerhat, Satkhira and Khulna districts. The collection sites were mangrove natural forests, residential areas, roadside and nearby villages of Mongla, Rampal, Sarankhola and Shamnagar. Experimental Site The analytical experiments were conducted in the Laboratory of the Department of Plant Pathology, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University (SAU), Dhaka, Bangladesh. Sampling Procedure A pre-designed collection procedure and data analysis procedure was applied to collect information on biodiversity, distribution, habitat and morphology of mushrooms from the above mentioned regions of Bangladesh. Collection of Mushrooms A detailed survey was carried out in Bagerhat, Satkhira and Khulna districts under the mangrove forest regions of Bangladesh from June to October, 2015 to determine the morphological variability of mushroom’s population following standard protocol. Furthermore, the spotted and fleshy mushrooms were minutely inspected, collected and brought to the laboratory for detailed inspection.  Morphological Observation during Collection The data for the identification of mushrooms were recorded after collection on the following parameters, such as locality, habitat, type of soil, forest type, size of the fructification, basidiocarps, umbo, cap color, cap surface, cap margin, cap diameter, scale, gill color, gill edges, gill attachment, gill spacing, stipe length, width, color, shape, type of veil, annuls (position) and volva. 2.6 Mushroom Processing The photographs were taken in different angles and some morphological data, viz. size of fructification, pileus diameter, stipe length and their color were recorded after the collection of mushrooms. Mushrooms were dried and processed following the predefined method Drying Collected samples were cleaned and dried by using electrical air flow drier controlling the1000 voltage, which can easily remove the moisture content from the collected mushrooms within 3-7 hours with a regular interval basis power supply (15 minutes switch off and 30 minutes switching) depending on the structure and texture of the species. 2.8 Storage Dried mushrooms were stored into a zip-lock type polybag during the survey period for further studies. Silica gels were used at the rate of 10% of dry basis during the storage period. 2.9 Morphology and Microscopic Characterization The basidiocarps were rehydrated by soaking in water for few minutes before analyzing their morphology. Qualitative characters such as color, shape, and presence of hymenia were evaluated by eye observation while texture was determined by feeling the back and top surfaces using fingers. Most of the morphological data were recorded during collection period that is when the mushroom was in fresh form. Permanent glass slides were made from rehydrated basidiocarps with the aid of a sharp surgical blade for the microscopic characterization. Basidiocarps were immersed in cotton blue stain and glycerin and placed on glass slides and covered with cover slips. Furthermore, the spore size was measured using Motic microscope with the magnification of 40x. The final identification and classification done by comparing the previously recorded characteristics of mushroom following the color dictionary of mushroom written by Dickinson and John [15], the mushroom guide and identifier by Jorden and the mushroom identifier by Pegler and Spooner. 2.10 Habitat, Distribution and Diversity Analysis The mushrooms were found in an association with various substrata. The surrounding environment, temperature, soil pH, moisture condition and vegetation were recorded for the biodiversity of mushroom. The soil pH and moisture were measured by pH meter. On the other hand, the air temperature was measured by thermometer during the collection. Collected samples were wrapped with polybag and brought into the laboratory for further study. The distribution of mushrooms on the locality was also recorded. The frequency and density of different species has been determined by the following formulas [18]: Frequency of fungal sp. (%) = (Number of site in which the species is present/ Total number of sites) x100 Density = (Total no. of individual of a particular species/ Total number of species) x 100.

Throughout this investigation, the identified 22 species of xylotrophic fungi provide us the presence of wild mushrooms in the mangrove forest regions of Bangladesh. The increasing populations remind us to meet up the food to feed the every person would be more challenging in future. Because of demand now the scientist are more curious to find out the alternative food sources to feed the nation and that is why the research of mushrooms field is increasing dramatically now-a-days. The wild xylotrophic fungi are the greatest source of medicinal properties and which are available in our mangrove forest regions of Bangladesh. Even these wild mushrooms are the good source of income for the unemployed youth of our country which also contribute to our national economy. Moreover, future investigation is also needed in different seasons as well as in different forest regions to identify the new exotic mushroom species, which will represent a complete overview about the available mycota in Bangladesh.
