Annotated checklist of aphyllophoroid fungi of Ukraine

types of predominating ecosystems in each region (marshy woodlands, mountain
forests, steppe forest islands, steppes, etc.). The natural regions of Ukraine were
ranged in four groups by the number of recorded aphyllophoroid species (Fig. 3).
The most species-rich region is the Carpathian Mountains (including Transcarpathian
region — see remark to Tab. 2), that is naturally due to high value of
precipitations, high per cent of old growing forests and high portion of forested
area.
