Abstract: Present study deals with the evaluation of diversity of Ectomyccorhizal fungi (ECM) are the mutually associated with the higher plants mainly grasses. All the fungal species were collected from S. R. T. M. University Campus. (19?06'00.3N, 77?17'15.6E) in Monsoon period month of June to November 2014. The fungal species samples were isolated by the small pileus tissue of basidiocarps and spore print method. In all 08 Ectomycorrhizal samples were identified up to species level and 03 up to generic level. The genus Termitomyces heimii and Termitomyces clypeatus are the most dominant in the collected samples.
