Hitherto Unreported Lentinus species of Tribal Area of Visakhapatnam

Abstract

The present study documents six species of Lentinus species distributed in the forests, plantations and grass lands of the Eastern ghats of Visakhapatnam distrct, A.P., India. Occurrence and distribution of Lentinus species have been assessed based on literature and the present survey. Descriptions recorded Lentinus species are given along with diagnastic features for identification. Traditional knowledge of Lentinus has been documented based on a tribal sect and the local population. As Lentinus are uncultivable, strategies recommended for conservationof their habitat and sustainable harvesting of this human nutritional source as an alternative to plant and animal- derived food.
