En: Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica v. 42 n. 1-2 (2007)Resumen: Review of Entomophthorales (Zygomycota: Zygomycetes) fungal pathogens of insects from Argentina. Entomophthoralean fungi are entomopathogens that cause death of their insect hosts, they usually are very specific and however some of them are able to be in vitro cultivated, some species are hardly possible or not able to be isolated in axenic cultures. The Entomophthorales (Zygomycota: Zygomycetes) are the most predominant insect pathogenic fungi which are poorly known in South America and they are scarce reported in Argentina. The overall purpose of the present paper is to update the knowledge of the reports and research done about this fungal group in our country and to include a checklist of fungal species, distribution and insect hosts to further extent about its biodiversity.
