This paper presents first records of one hundred and six species of macrofungi belonging to sixty gen-era from the Valley of Flowers National Park. Out of these 106 species, eight species belong to seven genera (viz. DaldiniaCes. & De Not., Geoglossum Pers., HelvellaL., HypoxylonBull., Morchella Dill. ex Pers., Trichoglossum Boud and XylariaHill ex Schrank) of four families (viz. Geoglossaceae Corda, Helvellaceae Fr., Morchellaceae Rchb. and Xylariaceae Tul. &C. Tul.) of Ascomycota, and ninety eight species belong to fifty three genera (viz.
