Resumen:
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.
