ResumoSeven species of Termitomyces were identified — T. clypeatus, T. microcarpus, T. sagittiformis, T. schimperi, T. striatus, T. umkowaani and T. reticulatus sp. nov. The wood-destroying termite Odontotermes badius was found to be the most commonly associated termite species. Termitomyces sagittiformis was associated with Odontotermes latericius, a new record. The morphologies of the Termitomyces spp. are described and illustrated and their occurrence, distribution and termite associations are discussed.
