Abstract
Eight ectomycorrhizal subtypes and eighteen sub-subtypes were found in Nothofagus solandri var. cliffortioides in New Zealand in the course of one year. Subtypes, identified according to Dominik's classification, were A, B, C, F, G, H, I, and K. There were variations in relative frequency of these subtypes at different times of the year. More than one subtype could frequently be distinguished on a single root. Black mycorrhiza involving Cenococcum graniforme occurred infrequently. Subtype B, common in Fagus in Czechoslovakia, occurred most frequently of all subtypes.
