New records of tropical Hygrophoraceae in Mexico.

A survey on Hygrophoraceae was made during 2011-2013 in a tropical rainforest in southeast Mexico. Specimens were collected from Agua Blanca State Park (2,025 ha, 100-200 m over sea level), located in Sierra Region, Macuspana, Tabasco, as part of a broader survey on tropical macrofungi. After taxonomic examination of all collections, we determined five new records for Mexico, four in Hygrocybe , subsections Hygrocybe and Firmae  (Hygrocybe konradii var. antillana, H. occidentalis var. occidentalis, H. hypohaemacta and H. miniatofirma) and one in Camarophyllus subsection Camarophyllus (Camarophyllus subpratensis). All taxa are fully described and illustrated.
