Abstract
The paper contains results of mycological examinations conducted in the Wolin National Park from May to October 2017, and data previously unpublished. Exploration was carried out using the route method in the whole Park, with particular emphasis on its western part. The paper includes 205 taxa (25 from Ascomycota and 180 from Basidiomycota), including 32 new ones for the Wolin National Park. Among the identified taxa, 17 were threatened. The endangered species (Category E) were represented by <em>Aleurodiscus disciformis</em>, <em>Calcipostia guttulata</em>, and <em>Geastrum triplex</em>, the vulnerable species (V) included <em>Inocybe grammata</em>, <em>Inocutis rheades</em>, and <em>Xylobolus frustulatus</em>, and the rare species (R) consisted of 10 taxa, including <em>Helvella lacunosa</em>, <em>Gloeoporus taxicola</em>, <em>Mycena crocata</em>, <em>Plicaturopsis crispa</em>, and <em>Pseudomerulius aureus</em>. Some species are known only from a few sites in Poland, e.g., <em>Hohenbuehelia auriscalpium</em> and <em>C. guttulata</em>. Currently, the number of macromycetes species known from the Wolin National Park is 508.
Highlights
Large protected areas, such as national parks, have become particular points of interest in the mycological explorations conducted in Poland in recent years
More than half of the macromycetes included in this study were recorded outside well-developed patches of plant communities, while 89 species were found in Luzulo pilosae-Fagetum, and only one species in Galio odorati-Fagetum and Fago-Quercetum petraeae
The results of this study have contributed to a better recognition of the mycobiota of the Wolin National Park (WNP)
Summary
Large protected areas, such as national parks, have become particular points of interest in the mycological explorations conducted in Poland in recent years. The specificity in the appearance of fruiting bodies means that subsequent years of research will still provide new data on macromycetes of the studied area (e.g., Gierczyk et al, 2017, Gierczyk, Szczepkowski, et al, 2019a, 2019b; Grzesiak et al, 2017). This is reflected in the case of the Wolin National Park (WNP).
