Abstract
In the biotope " Inochinomori " , fungal fruiting bodies of total 300 species in 45 families were found during 14 years from the establishment. Among them, 283 species were basidiomycetous fungi, and 17 species were ascomycetous fungi. Furthermore, epigeous fungi were 186 species, and the number of species started to increase two years later from the establishment in 1998 with the peak in 2001. Generally, fruiting period was from May to July and September through December. In the early days, Laccaria ohiensis, Hebeloma sacchariolens, and Scleroderma areolatum occurred in abundance, but the occurring number of those fruiting bodies sharply decreased after 11 years in 2007. In terms of species number, many species in the genus Inocybe were found in the early days, but the species composition was started to change to the late-stage species in the genera Cortinarius and Russula from four years after establishment in 2000. These results clearly indicate that the aboveground fungal flora has not remained in early-stage but already changed to late-stage during these14 years.
