NGO Micofilos
www.micofilos.clOur NGO is a non-profit Non-Governmental Organization dedicated to scientifically spread the Fungi Kingdom. Our interest is focused on the taxonomic study of the macrofungi and lichens present in Chile, as well as the study of their biodiversity, ecology and biogeography. The conservation of our native forest and the organisms that inhabit it are very important to us. As a team we intend to reach different communities that are dedicated to collecting and using these forest resources: fungi and lichens, in order to support them with these initiatives and serve as a guide in those processes that represent a great contribution to the quality of life of these persons. Note that our NGO has a research network made up of national and international institutions, as well as a Fungarium with around 2000 samples indexed in the New York Index Herbariorum with the code "MICOCL", which correspond to the initials of "Microphiles Chile " Therefore, we know that our organization contributes significantly to research on the diversity of the Fungi Kingdom present in our country, which, by presenting biogeographic isolation and favorable environmental conditions for its growth, presents a high number of endemic species, that is, unique in the world. We invite all who are interested in learning more about the mycobiota present in Chile and the essential functions they fulfill in our ecosystems, to contact us to evaluate the joint work that strengthens the mycological study and allow the results obtained to reach the general public through scientific divulgation.
