Abstract
This paper presents the results of mycological studies conducted in the Wolin National Park from July to November 2012, and sporadically in the following 4 years. Explorations were made by a route method over the whole area of the Park, mainly in forest associations: <em>Cephalanthero rubrae-Fagetum</em>, <em>Galio odorati-Fagetum</em>, <em>Luzulo pilosae-Fagetum</em>, and <em>Fago-Quercetum petraeae</em>. In total, 322 taxa of macrofungi were found, 37 Ascomycota and 285 Basidiomycota. Two of them, <em>Hericium coralloides</em> and <em>Inonotus obliquus</em>, are under partial protection, 39 on the red list of fungi in Poland. For the first time, <em>Russula torulosa</em>, previously not reported from Poland, was found in Wolin National Park. Among the examined phytocoenoses, <em>Galio odorati-Fagetum</em> and <em>Luzulo pilosae-Fagetum</em> are characterized by the highest species variety and abundance.

This paper presents the results of mycological studies conducted in the Wolin National Park from July to November 2012, and sporadically in the following 4 years
Five taxa: Amanita virosa, Coprinus picaceus, Hericium coralloides, Ischnoderma resinosum, and Xylobolus frustulatus belong to the category vulnerable (V)
Summary
National parks belong to strategic natural resources of Poland [1]. They are established on the areas of exceptional natural value in order to preserve biological diversity of all groups of organisms, including rare and threatened with extinction species. Richness of species in particular national parks has not been sufficiently defined and in the case of fungus biota hardly recognized. Until 2000, detailed mycological observations have been conducted only in a few of them (e.g., [2,3,4]). The state of recognition of diversity fungi in many Polish national parks is still not enough
