description Introduction: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a pivotal role in plant nutrition and soil stability, also play an important role for sustainable agriculture and the restoration of degraded areas. In Costa Rica, research has been conducted on the diversity of AMF in select ecosystems. However, a comprehensive compilation of these studies is currently lacking. Objective: To compile an updated list of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in Costa Rica, organised by vegetation types and life zones. This will facilitate a more comprehensive understanding of their diversity and serve as a foundation for future research in taxonomy, distribution, ecology and biotechnological applications. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in Google Scholar, Scopus and Web of Science, utilising Spanish and English terms related to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and Costa Rica, spanning the period from 1971 to 2024. The selection criterion included studies that identified species based on morphological or molecular criteria. The following information was integrated into a database. Results: We compiled 57 studies published from 1975-2024 and after screening 549 initial records, 115 records corresponding to species level were confirmed. 60 AMF species belonging to five orders were identified, representing 16 % of the global diversity known as Glomeromycota. The families Glomeraceae (23 species) and Acaulosporaceae (19 species) were the best represented. Furthermore, it was observed that studies have been conducted in only four of the 12 life zones described for Costa Rica, and include agroecosystems and trap crops (consortia) or pure crops (monospecific). Conclusions: It is evident that there has been a degree of advancement in the comprehension of the ecology, diversity and distribution of AMF. Nevertheless, further ecological and taxonomic research is required, encompassing both morphological and molecular analyses, to facilitate the expansion of knowledge concerning the distribution and diversity of AMF in Costa Rica.

En Costa Rica, su diversidad ha sido estudiada en algunos ecosistemas, pero a la fecha no hay una compilación integral. Objetivo: Compilar una lista actualizada de hongos micorrícicos arbusculares (HMA) en Costa Rica, organizada por tipos de vegetación y zonas de vida, que amplíe la comprensión de su diversidad y sirva de base para estudios futuros en taxonomía, distribución, ecología y aplicaciones biotecnológicas. Métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en Google Scholar, Scopus y Web of Science, empleando términos en español e inglés relacionados con hongos micorrícicos arbusculares (HMA) y Costa Rica, en el periodo 1971-2024. Se incluyeron únicamente estudios que identificaran especies basándose en criterios morfológicos o moleculares, integrando la siguiente información en una base de datos. Resultados: Compilamos 57 estudios publicados entre 1975-2024 y después de depurar 549 registros iniciales, se confirmó que 115 registros corresponden al nivel de especie. Se identifican 60 especies de HMA pertenecientes a cinco órdenes, lo que representa el 16 % de la diversidad global conocida como Glomeromycota. Las familias Glomeraceae (23 especies) y Acaulosporaceae (19 especies) fueron las mejor representadas. Además, se observó que los estudios se han llevado a cabo únicamente en cuatro de las 12 zonas de vida descritas para Costa Rica, además de algunos estudios en agroecosistemas, cultivos trampa (consorcios) y cultivos puros (monoespecíficos). Conclusiones: Se ha avanzado en el conocimiento de la ecología, diversidad y distribución de los HMA, sin embargo, es necesario continuar realizando investigaciones ecológicas y taxonómicas que incluyan tanto análisis morfológicos como moleculares, con el fin de ampliar el conocimiento sobre la distribución y diversidad de los HMA en Costa Rica.Universidad de Costa Rica2025-04-08info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/epub+ziphttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rbt/article/view/6471010.15517/rev.biol.trop..v73iS2.64710Revista de Biología Tropical; Vol. 73 No. S2 (2025): V Aniversario del Centro de Investigación en Biodiversidad y Ecología Tropical (CIBET); e64710Revista de Biología Tropical; Vol. 73 Núm.
