Abstract: As a national Ⅱ protected plant in China, Tilia amurensis Rupr. is an important tree species for nectar source, medicine and landscape. The resources of ectomycorrhizae colonizing T. amurensis were investigated in three typical distribution areas of T. amurensis in Heilongjiang Province. A total of 18 ectomycorrhizal types were grouped by observing morphological and anatomical characteristics of T. amurensisassociated ectomycorrhizae, of which 13 were formed by basidiomycetes, 1 by ascomycytes, and 4 unknown. Our study provides a morphological basis for mycorrhizal seedlings of T. amurensis.
