Abstract

The article presents the results of mycological studies conducted in 2018 and 2019 on the territory of the Boguty Mountains. The samples were collected in the early spring in the gorges of the Big Boguty massif. An annotated taxonomic list is provided, which includes 21 species of micromycetous fungi and fungus-like organisms from 17 genera, 11 families, 6 orders, 5 classes, 2 kingdoms. For 4 species of fungi, the systematic position remains unclear. One myxomycete and 19 species of micromycetes are new to the study area, a new host (Tamarix sp.) is given for the species Fumago vagans. Of the newly observed species, 7 species (35 %) are plant parasites, and 13 species (65 %) are saprotrophs on plant residues. The most frequently noted are: Torula antiqua Corda on the remains of last year’s stems of Acroptilon sp., Euphorbia rapulum Kar. et Kir., Ferula sp., Richteria semenovii (Herder) Sonboli et Oberpr.; Torula herbarum (Pers.) Link on the remains of last year’s stems Descurainia sophia (L.) Webb ex Prantl, Dianthus sp.; Strickeria pezizoides (Sacc. et Speg.) Cooke on dead branches of Caragana aurantiaca Koehne and Caragana sp.
