    Checklist of aphyllophoroid fungi (Basidiomycota) of the Ekenäs Archipelago National Park, Southern Finland

    ABSTRACT
    This is the first checklist of aphyllophoroid fungi (Basidiomycota) of the Ekenäs Archipelago National Park on the Finnish south coast. The focus is on wood-dwelling polypores and corticioids. The material was collected in the years 1989, 1990, 2010 and 2012, respectively, during one or a few days each year. The field work was carried out on the two largest islands: Älgö and Jussarö. The number of species detected was 150, which is 20% of all the Finnish polypores and corticioids. Eight of the species are nationally or regionally threatened.
