Abstract

Arko PF, Marzuki BM, Kusmoro J. 2017. The inventory of edible mushroom in Kamojang Nature Reserve and Nature Park, West Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 18: 530-540. Research on the potential of macroscopic fungi in the forests of Indonesia as food and medicine still hasn't much been done. Until now, the biodiversity data of macroscopic fungi are destitute. On the other hand, we are faced with the rapid rate of decline of biodiversity both by natural processes and by human activities. The purpose of this study was to determine the species of edible mushroom in Kamojang Natural Reserves and Nature Park, Bandung-Garut Districts, West Java. The method used in this research were exploration method assisted with line transect and semi-structural interviews to people around Kamojang Nature Reserves and Nature Parks.
