    Entered 2018. We are a non-governmental organization with research, diffusion, ambiental education and conservation proposal. We have recently created our fungarium to continuing doing research, and to publicate our studies on journals and in a free access web page, to contribute to Chilean fungal knowledge. Then, we will send collections replicates to National Natural History Museum (SGO). We have above of 900 fungal collections, that they are been being incorporated into the collection continuously. Every year we are visiting native Chilean forests to collect fungi, and then do taxonomic and ecological studies.
