Velikiy Island is the largest island in Kandalaksha State Nature Reserve (the Reserve). We prepared a check-list of aphyllophoroid fungi of Velikiy Island and the two nearest small islands, including 131 species. Seventy-seven species were recorded in the Reserve for the first time. Byssoporia terrestris, Hyphodontia abieticola, and Hypochnicium multiforme were found in Murmansk Region for the first time. The observations of the three species form the northern limit of their global range. New localities are reported for four Murmansk Region red-listed species (Dichomitus squalens, Hericium coralloides, Junghuhnia collabens, and Leptoporus mollis).
