title: [Cultural characteristics of some ectomycorrhizal fungi in pure culture].
abstract: Macro and microscopic features for 21 species of ectomycorrhizal fungi are presented, with regard to their particular importance as possible taxonomic criteria. The culture media used are MMN and BAF. Cultural characteristics of some of our isolates, like color or morphology of the mycelia, were comparable to those observed by different authors for the same species, or species which are closely related taxonomically, as for example Boletus satanas and Lactarius deliciosus in BAF media, or Hebeloma edurum, Lycoperdon perlatum, Paxillus atrotomentosus, Rhizopogon roseolus and Suillus collinitus in MMN media. Macroscopically the color of mycelia, the amount of aerial mycelia and microscopically the exudates and the presence of inflated and flexuous cells were the most variable characteristics within species.
