Fossil Fleshy Fungi (“Mushrooms”) in Amber

George Poinar Jr.

A survey of fleshy fungi from amber deposits around the world is presented. Included are representatives of gilled fungi, puffballs, bird’s nest fungi, gasteroid fungi, xylaroid fungi, hymenomycetes, polypores and morels. Also included is a description of the first fossil morel, Paleomorchella dominicana gen. et sp. nov. from Dominican Republic amber. Several arthropods that were associated with the fossil fungi are figured and discussed.
