Documentation of fungal diversity in general and wild edible fungi in the Republic of Congo started less than a decade ago. When working as a Botanist for the Nouabale-Ndoki National Park from 2006 to 2015, I found that local communities of Hunther-gatherers had tremendous knowledge of wild edible mushrooms compared to Settled farmers in the same localities. However, that knowledge which can contribute to preserving habitats, cultural identity of the Hunther-gatherers and promoting such information on natural resources for tourists arriving in the localities is still not fully documented despite changes to culture due to the influence of the society in which they live in. Recent Rufford projects that we conducted in the country revealed the threat of Gilbertiodendron forest for farming, extension of towns and building of new roads whereas such habitat is containing a high diversity of wild fungi in Northern Congo. In addition, other areas of the forest with mixed species of trees are also important for livelihoods of local populations but are threatened by unsustainable agricultural techniques. Thus, this project aims at (1) training local population and students in collecting macrofungi, (2) identifying important habitats for macrofungi in Hunther-gatherers’s area, (3) identifying the collected samples and (4) producing a bilingual (English-French) manual of wild edible mushrooms used by Hunther-gatherers with local names.
