Anahtar Sozcukler Myxomycetes miksobiyota yeni kayitlar Introduction The number of myxomycete species known worldwide is about 1000 in contrast the number of known Turkish myxomycete taxa is approximately 200 species and these were collected in recent years Ergul Dulger 2000 2002a 2002b 2002c Ocak Hasenekoglu 2003a 2003b Oran Ergul 2004 . This number of Turkish Myxomycetes is relatively small when compared with other countries which have a similar vegetation and climate. For this reason mycofloristic studies should be encouraged throughout Turkey. In the present study 3 new species were added to the myxobiota of Turkey Craterium leucocephalum Pers. ex . Ditmar Physarum pulcherrimum Berk. Ravanel and Reticularia liceoides Lister . Materials and Methods Bark and foliar materials from different localities were collected on different dates. Some naturally fruiting specimens were collected by gently and directly picking them from their substrata and placing them in herbarium boxes with a small piece of stick. In addition some bark specimens were incubated in moist chambers for the production of mature myxomycetes sporocarps Gilbert Martin 1933 . Then the
