Abstract
A study of the family Cistaceae has been carried out, going into detail about relationships between Southeastern Spain Cistaceae species and hypogeous fungi. Both Terfezia and Tirmania are the most important and consumed gender in the Mediterranean, while Picoa and Melanogaster are also collected, although secondarily. A synthesis of bibliographic data has been made. Moreover authors also provide field data, some of them unpublished, which will increase significantly available information related to symbiosis between Cistaceae and mycorrhizal fungi. It is also noteworthy that of the 21 species belonging to Helianthemum, an amount of 12 are able to establish symbiotic relationships with Terfezia to produce ascocarps in the field.
