This study aims to determine the different uses of the two edible mushrooms Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and Auricularia auricularia judae in Ivory Coast. A survey was conducted in the cities of Daloa and Yamoussoukro from June to August 2020 among sellers, traditional healers and consumers. The results show that the vernacular name of the mushrooms varies from one ethnic group to another. The most by consumers (88.87% for Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and 89.87% for Auricularia auricularia judae) obtain the mushrooms by purchase. Dried mushrooms are the most consumed forms (71.35% for Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and 75.32% for Auricularia auricularia judae). The ethnic groups of western Côte d'Ivoire, the Guéré (20.07% for Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and 21.76% for Auricularia auricularia judae), the Yacouba 19.06% for Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and 20.91% for Auricularia auricularia judae) and wobe (19.53% for Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and 21.84% for Auricularia auricularia judae) are the largest consumers. The fungi Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and Auricularia auricularia judae have nutritional and medicinal properties. They could constitute alternatives to guarantee the food security of the population. Knowing the biochemical composition of the two fungi Lentinus brunneofloccosus pegler and Auricularia auricularia judae is an essential prerequisite for their promotion and export.
