摘要：Fungi serve many useful and important functions from decomposing and recycling plant and animal remains to providing edibles such as morels. However, fungi are often poorly studied and frequently ignored in biodiversity studies, compared to other groups of organisms. The objective of this project was to collect, identify, and voucher fruiting bodies of terrestrial macro-fungi at Deep Woods, the site of an all taxon biodiversity inventory (ATBI) sponsored by the Ohio Biological Survey. Deep Woods is 114-ha in size and is comprised of a diversity of habitats including fields, lowland and upland forests, riparian forest, hemlock ravines, sandstone outcrops, and rockhouse formations. During the 2002 growing season, the property was surveyed (selectively walked) approximately every 10 days and fungi were collected and identified. In total, 92 species were collected with 12 species from 6 families in 4 orders of ascomycetes and 74 species from 24 families in 14 orders of basidiomycetes. The fungi were further divided into groups based upon ecological guild: 15 soil-inhabiting, 7 litter-inhabiting, 49 wood-inhabiting, 12 mycorrhizal species, and two other with six unknown. Our data indicate a diverse assemblage of macrofungi that is comparable to other studies in the Central Hardwoods Region. Due to the ephemeral nature of fungal fruiting bodies, multiple years of study would certainly expand the species list. The data contribute to the long-term goals of the Deep Woods ATBI. Furthermore, the data provide information to understand fungal diversity on a local as well as regional scale to incorporate into conservation and land management plans.
