La pérdida acelerada de la biodiversidad constituye uno de los desafíos ambientales más críticos que enfrenta la humanidad. Esta problemática es particularmente aguda en grupos altamente diversos y poco estudiados como los hongos, cuyo estado de conservación a nivel global ha sido evaluado en una proporción mínima respecto a su riqueza conocida. En este estudio, la evaluación del estado de conservación de hongos y mixomicetes (protozoos análogos funcionales de los hongos) presentes en Cuba se realizó bajo las categorías y criterios de la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza (UICN), siguiendo los estándares establecidos por dicha organización. Se categorizaron un total de 396 especies; los filos con mayor representatividad fueron Ascomycota (188 taxones) y Basidiomycota (133), mientras que en Glomeromycota y Mucoromycota se evaluaron menos taxones, 19 y 4 especies, respectivamente. Los resultados arrojan 78 especies en Peligro Crítico (CR), 48 en Peligro (EN), 53 Vulnerables (VU), 18 Casi Amenazadas (NT), 46 con Datos Insuficientes (DD) y 153 en la categoría de Preocupación Menor (LC). The accelerated loss of biodiversity constitutes one of the most critical environmental challenges facing humanity. This issue is particularly acute in highly diverse and understudied groups such as fungi, whose global conservation status has been assessed in a minimal proportion relative to their known richness. In this study, the conservation status of fungi and myxomycetes (functional analogues of fungi) in Cuba was assessed following the categories and criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), according to the standards established by this organization. A total of 396 species were categorized; the most represented phyla were Ascomycota (188 taxa) and Basidiomycota (133), while im Glomeromycota and Mucoromycota fewer taxa were evaluated, 19 and 4 species, respectively. The results show 78 species in Critically Endangered (CR), 48 Endangered (EN), 53 Vulnerable (VU), 18 Near Threatened (NT), 46 Data Deficient (DD), and 153 as Least Concern (LC).”
