Euskal Herriko artadietako makromizetoen azterketa

Abstract

This work includes a study of the macromycetes in the oak groves of the Basque Country. To do so, taking into account the north - south gradient of the Basque Country, the oak groves in three emplacements were studied; one Cantabric oak groves and two Mediterranean ones. Five 400 m2 plots were delimited in each oak grove. In the time of most fungi fructification, the plots were visited weekly, and in each visit, an inventory and a quantification was made of the various kinds of macromycetes. After a year of sampling, and considering all of the oak groves, 237 species of macromycetes were identified. Differences were observed in the macromycetes communities in the three emplacements. In any case, if the results of the studies on macromycetes are to be reliable, it is convenient to follow-up the results over a period of several years.
