The present study was carried out to assess the mycorrhizal associations in the roots of eight terrestrial orchid species [Crepidium versicolor (Lindl.) Sushil K.Singh, Agrawala & Jalal, Eulophia picta (R.Br.) Ormerod, Habenaria crinifera Lindl., H. diphylla (Nimmo) Dalzell, H. marginata Colebr., Nervilia concolor (Blume) Schltr., Pecteilis gigantea (Sm.) Raf., and Peristylus plantagineus (Lindl.) Lindl.] from the Western Ghats of Goa. The present communication revealed the occurrence of mycorrhizal associations in the roots of eight selected terrestrial orchid species from Western Ghats of Goa. The colonization was characterized by the presence of pelotons in the root cortical cells.
