In this chapter, we outline the characteristics of the fruiting bodies eaten by vertebrate mycophagous animals, list the most important groups of these, and describe their ecological roles in fungal spore dispersal. The possible exploitation of mycophagous animals in truffle cultivation is also discussed.

In this chapter, we outline the characteristics of the fruiting bodies eaten by vertebrate mycophagous animals, list the most important groups of these, and describe their ecological roles in fungal spore dispersal. The possible exploitation of mycophagous animals in truffle cultivation is also discussed.
