摘要
Myxobacteria of tropical soils is an under-explored bacterial group. We report here the results of sampling in Pune district of Western Ghats. A number of novel morphotypes were found in forest as well as urban/semi-urban soils. There was a high level of floral dissimilarity between habitats. The morphotypes detected in Pune district also differed from the northern Indian species recorded earlier. Using a species individual curve on the Pune, Lucknow and pooled data, we try to estimate the number of species that are likely to be present in India. A plausible estimate is several fold higher than the species recorded worldwide so far.
