Biodiversity research of mushrooms in hallasan mountain natural reserve
Abstract
This study surveyed mushrooms as part of the Hallasan Natural Reserve Basic Academic Survey, which was conducted for the purposes of securing basic data on the Hallasan Mountain Natural Reserve; our study targeted the area between Seongpanak Trail and Donnaeko Trail from April to October 2018. A total of 392 species from 184 genera in 65 families were investigated. Among them, 187 mushrooms were wood-decaying species. The greatest diversity in mushroom species was recorded in July (206 species) at an altitude of 600-800 m above sea level. Among the mushrooms investigated, five were climate-sensitive biological indicator species and two were potential candidates for that classification. Of these, 163 species were biological resources that require approval for overseas export.
