The spores are yellow to brown in color, globose or subglobos
in shape, occasionally irregular. A characteristic that differentiates this species are
labyrinth-shaped ornaments on the surface of the L2 layer of the spore
wall.
Considering the common record of this species in different ecosystems and countries I suggest its classification as LC.
This species has been found in different continents and countries
such as: Brasil, Colômbia, Indonésia, México, Polônia, and Taiwan.
There are few records of the species in GBIF, but studies show greater
occurrence.
Population Trend: Improving
This species is found in natural areas, agrosystems and
impacted areas. In Brazil it has been registered in different biomes such as: Amazon Forest, Atlantic Forest, Caatinga, and Cerrado.
The destruction of habitat of various activities of anthropic origin, constitutes one of the main threats to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.
Conservation actions for this group include: creating areas and maintaining protected areas, preserving native vegetation and soil.
More information about the ecology of these species can help to understand the factors that influence their distribution, in addition to identifying, in a more specific way, the threats to this group’s biodiversity.
