Abstract: An investigation of mycodiversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi was carried out in the rhizosphere of 20 species of medicinal plants in southern Fujian. Sixty-six species of AM fungi were obtained, of which 12 species belong to Acaulospora, 1 to Archaeospora, 2 to Gigaspora, 42 to Glomus, and 9 to Scutellospora. Glomus aureum, Glomus arenarium and Glomus callosum are new records in China.
