This richness is constituted primarily of higher fungi, which include 708 species of this total fungal flora. It is divided into 48 orders, 244 genera and 119 families whose richer, have more than 20 species each: Agaricaceae (59species), Puccinaceae (56 species), Cortinariaceae (55 species), Russulaceae (41 species), Tricholomataceae (36 species), Coprinaceae (22 species), Amanitaceae (21 species), Entolomataceae (21 species), Bolbitiaceae (20 species) and Polyporaceae (20 species). The Basidiomycetes class constitutes the major part of this flora (77.65%), following by the Ascomycetes class (16.09%). These two classes account for approximately (93.74%) of total Mamora’s fungal flora. 2 INTRODUCTION Morocco is located in between the remained largely unknown until the 1950. Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Atlantic The first significant information collected on Ocean to the west and the Sahara desert to the higher fungi of the forest of Mamora was in the south. Thus, the relief’s orientation favors the last half of the previous century with the work presence of a very varied fauna and flora.This is of Mayor and Werner (1937) who had why it attracted many mycologists in the 1930s, published a catalog in the Memoirs of the especially the plateau, home to the forest of Society of Natural Sciences of Morocco titled Mamora (Boudy, 1951). It is an exceptional "Reasoned Fungi Known to Date in Morocco". forest, characterized by a highly variable climate This catalog contains only undescribed species. from the sub-humid to semi-arid and the ocean Malençon (mycological Excursion 1935, 1936, (NAAF, 2002) influences it. These conditions 1938 and 1960) published four reports of give rise to a rich flora in general, especially monthly meetings, No. 3, 4, 5 and 8 in the fungal. It was Mayor and Werner (1937) and Bulletin of the Society of Natural Sciences Malençon (1935, 1938) who had taken the first Physical and Morocco, as well as a list of steps to explore the heritage fungal of the Ascomycetes, Volume 7 in the Persoonia forest of Mamora, but due to the war in the (1973) and a list of Basidiomycetes in the fourties, their works were interrruped.
