FungusConsumption (Mycophagy) by SmallAnimals
Abstracl
A review of the natural history Iiterature of small mammal feeding habits, based on many fot- tuitous field obaervations, some analysis of stomach conrenrs, and a iew feeding experiments, shows that diverse animals- feed on similarly diverse fungi. Tle inrerdependence of animals and fungi has evolved to a higtr degree in some cases,e.g., the loss of alternative spore dispersal rnechanisirs by some fungi rnd tbe strong reliance of some mammals oo fungi as i primary food. Consequently, adaptation for mycophagy and rbe eflects on mycophagy o,f habitar, f;ngal ioxicity, and the food value of fungi have implications in the interptetation of ecosystem structure and function.
Introduction Truffles and other hypcgeous fungi occupy a higbly specialized, protected niche as subterranean-fruiting symbiocrtswith rcots of higher plants. Such fuogi depend oo mamrnal and invertebrate mycophagy for spore dispersal.These and orher fungi, in turn, are imponant in the diet of many aninralsand in somecases comprise the major food source. These interrelationships between fungi and animals engender rna[y questions !ele- vant to the life histories and ecosystemacicroles of both. For. example,which animals depend largely on fungi for food, for water, or for vitamins? \fhat are the behavioral implications of seeking,dryiog, and caching fungi? S7hat food valuesdo mycophagists derive from fuogi? Can animals differentiate between poisoflous and oonpoisonous fungi? \X/hat is the phylogenetic significance of the various fungal mechanisLmsevolved for attracting rnycophagisrs? IThat role does mycophagy play in fungus dispersal? \fhat impact does mycopbagy have on food chain and ecosystemdyoamics, and where need it be tecognized in ecosysternmodeling? The following literature review is intended to aid and stimulare a search for ansvrers to such questions with emphasis on mammals, although similar questioris can be asked about other animals as well. Little comprehensiveresearch bas been dooe on animal mycophagy. To interpret scrttered fragments of published information, we have filled some gaps with speculatioo io hope of fostering further research in tl.r,is farinating field. Our literature searchled to compilation of the reciprocal lists of mammal my- cophagistsand fungi eaten, preented later io this paper. Authorities for atl species mertioned in the text are given in theselisc.

Orher facto'rs of habit and habitar are undoubtedly as much or mote causally related to mycophagy. Ho uever, a relationship between mamrnal size and size of fungus eaten does seem likely in the sense that very srnall fu,ngal species appear to be eaten only by smaller mammals. For insrance, sFofoca,lFsof many species of the phycomy- cetous famity, Endogooacrae a(e a{ten less ttran a- millirneter in diameter acd rarely exceed a few millimeters. These species have been leported olly in stomach contents of small nrammds such as shrews, voles, mice, jurnping mice, pikas, etc., but they eat larger fuagi as well ( Ba-kerspiegel,1958; Calhoun, 1)41; Hamiltoo, 1!41a; Jameson, 1952; Vhitaker, 7962,1963a;Ifhitaker and Ferraro,1963; ri7hitaker ard Maser,1976).
Fogel and Traptrx Adaptatiou lot Mycophagy Morphological adaptations of sma.llmammals are probably directly related to mycophagy. Animals adapced for digging rnight be expected to have an advanrage in the search for truffles and other hypogeous fungi. Specieswith weak teeth mighr be more irnpelled to eat fungi when available. Un ornrnately, the data presently available are rcx) scanry to test rhese h''pothees. Mammalian food-garheringbeh.avior has evolved for locating fungi. Tevis (1953) observed innumerable small pits left in the soil from exraction of hypogeous fungi by animals; indeed, mycologistshave long used this sign to indicate rvhen and where to seek such fungi. Small ma-mmal mycophagisa probobly locate hypogeous fungi by odor. Most hypogeous fungi have a noticeable odor at ma.tutity which is almosr over- whelming to many humans (Parks, 19i9). Often the presenceof these ftrngi is not visible on the soil surface. The ability of squirels to detect mast by odor has been feported many rimes ( Allen, 1)4J; CahaItte, 1942; Cran, 1)24; Dtce, 1927 log)es, 1,)47; Ogtev,1940). N(e have observedovei yeals of extensivecollecting of hypogeous fungi that sporocarp odor is oor detectable on immatute specimeos. As some spores reach maturity, a light odor often can be noticed; as rhe plopofiion of mature qnres incteases, so d,oes the intensity of odo'r. Thus the fungus may remain uodaected at early stagesof developmentbut emits increasinglystrong cdors as it matures. Bright color as well as odor may attract small mammals to epigeou,s mushrooms and puffballs (Ingles, 1947). Mushrooms are sorneriines bbled in itu brt arc also harvested whole. Numerous observers have reported mushrooms hung in tree branch "appearing forks by squirrels, at times rhe tree bedecked for Christrnas," (Cram, 1924; Hatt, 1929; K{teger,7)61; Mafie, 1927, Odell, 1925, 1)26; Ogre't, 1940; Stakhrovskii, 1912). Since dried fungi preserveindefinitely, the inteor of rhe squiuels is presumably to dty them for caching. Ha:dy (1949) found a cache of sporocarps left by a Tami- aviu'ru budtonic*t in a hollow ffee rrunk.
M)rcophagy and, Habitat
The characteristics of plant communities to which small marnmals have become adapted are decidedly related to mycophagy. Forests of ectomycorhizal trees such as rhe Pinaceae, Fagaceae,or Berulaceaeproduce a greater abundanceof relatively large, fleshy mush- rooms and hyprgeousfungi, the typical fruiting forms of ectomycorrhizalfungi ( Trappe, 1962). Plant communities of vesicular-arbusculat(VA) mycorrhizal hosts such as the Cupressaceae,Acelaceae, or herrbaceousplans of fields, meadows, aod bogs form mycorhizae sith cerrain geoera of the Endogonaceae,which fruit hypogeously as single spores or very small, empa.'t sporocarps ( Gerdemann and Trappe, 1974). Thus, ad- jarent habitat types m@ydiffer srrikingly in form and biomassof sporocarpsproduced. The small mammals that inhabit ectomycorrhizal forests might be expected to feed rnote oo macrofirngi than inhabitants of VA-mycorrhizal meadows. Althoqgh adequate data are not available, it cao be hypothesized that mycophagy in VA-mycotrhizal red- wood or maple foresrs resembles rhat of meadows more closely thao rhat of ecromycor- rhizal pine or oak forests. if this hypo,thesisis true, the qualitative and quantitarive relationships of small mammal p<4rulado,nsberween these valious kinds of habitats migllr deserve a new lo FuogusConsumprion by Small Animals Estimated annual production of epigeous mushroorns is summarized for several forest types i.n Table 2. The data of Richardson (1970) provide the best of the esti- mates presentedJbecause his estimaes ale based on nearly weekly visits to the smdy sile ove! a peliod of five years. The other estimates are based on relatively scanty data. TABLE 2. Estimatedproduction of eprgeousmushrooms per ha yr1.

The drying of mushroomsby squirrels concenuates their food value. At rhe same rime, fresh fung.i might be an irnporant source of water for animals unable to exist on bound or metabolic water when free water is unavailable (Getz, 1)68; C. Smith, 1965). Some measures of the food value of fungi are comlxred with thoee of other food sources in Tables l-5. The data should be interpreted only in a bcoad seosg since sevelal sources aod differing analytical methodologies are repreented in the compila- tion. Fresh, fleshy fungi resemble fruits and vegetables io containing substantially feqrer Fogel and Trappe caloriesgm1lhan fresh nut kemels, eggs,o! meat (Ta.ble 3).

Slnres presumably contain cooceotlated melgy sources,as indicated by the relatively high caloric values of gills or rubes of mushrooms as compared to the somatic parts ( Table 4) and by the high lild content seen in spores of some fungi ( Gerdemaon and Trappe, 1974). However, reports of squirrels eating caps and gills of musbtooms while leaving the stems ( Hatt, 1929; Ogrev, 1!40; C. Smith, 1965) probably reflect palatabilicy rather than selection for food value. Aside from their calolic value, some of th€ diverse organic compounds of fungi may be impcrtant in srnall mamrnal physiology. For example, ergosterol, a poesibly impoltant soulce of mammalian hormone precursors) Fungus C-onsumpdon,by Small Animals and ranges from about O.2 to 0,5 percent of the dry weight of flesrtry fungi ( Milazzo, i965; Shivrina et al., 1968; Caralfomo and Trappe, 1970). Fungi commonly contain other steroids, triterpenes, amines, indoles, and phenols (Catalfomo and Trappe, 1p70) of unknown but potendal use to mammals. Vitanins zuch as biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid, and riboflavin are produced in significant amnunts by sorne fleshy fungi ( Shemak- hanova, 1)67 ) . On a fresh weight basis,musluooms have higher concetrarions of nia.in and riboflavin rhan most nuts, fruirs, and leaf vegaables and equal qr excel mo6t meats in this regard ( Proud{ir and Rotrinsron, 1950). Fungal tissues effectively accumulate nonmetaJ.lic and metallic elemeots. Stark (1972) Iand that spo,roca4x of five fungal species corrained srubstantially higher conceoffationsof Cu, N, P,aaAZn than did pine oeedles (dry wL basis). At least some of the five also contained higher concentrations of Ca, Fe, K, Mg, and Na- Fungal rhizomorphs were also ligh in concentmtions of these elements, e.g., 180 times as much Fe as pine needles. The overall quality of fungi as a food source for small mammals bas nor been experimentally assessed.Tevis (1952) reported ttt^t Et.talniltr stornacbs cootaining only fungj were a.lwaysheavier than tho6e of a"orimalsfeeding on non-fungal material. He also found that when chipmuoks began ro acquire hibernation fat, those eating fungi bicame far sooner. But Naumov s relut of squirrels starving to death while gorged with Pobtpotur betaJin*s Ft. suggests .dnr some fungi may bave v€ry litde food value ( Ognev, 1!40), at least for some rnammals. Cyclic over-population qf mamrnals and poo( seed crop p,robably periodicaliy enhance the importance of mycophagy in reducing food stress (Ia,mpiq 1967; Ognev, l)4O; Ra,1ala.and Larnpio, 1963). The effect of poor mast crops, raditionally con- sidered a key factor in regularing squirel populatio,ns, mighr be moderated in good mushroom years ( Baumgalmer, 1939; Brown atrd Yeager, 194); Stienecker and Brown- ing, 1970:' Ublig 1955; and others ). Seasonalbuildup of rodem populations, together with rhe seasonaliry of fuogal ftuiting, mright explain the increased seaso,naluse of End.ogone by Percmysc*s maniculatu, Microtu longicaadus, Cletbr.onomy gappen, Pbenacoml,s itxermed,i*r, and, Zapu ptinceps (Wrlliams and Finney, 1!64).

Moct epigeous fungi, even the coprophilous species, are adapted for aerial o! watel tra{lspolt of spores; mycophagy would seem inciden al ro primary disFrsal mechanisms ( Ingeld, 1953). Of course, mushrooms hung in trees by squirrels are exposed to ar currents thet could carry spores farther than those at the ground surface. Mycorrhizal species or root pathogeru may gain some straregic advaotage ove! aerial dissemination if spores are eaten and then excrered oear susceptible h Furgus Consum4xion by Small Anima.ls 1974).

Mycophagy s/ould subiect ingesred fungal spffes to body heat, enzymatic accion, and cec:trlture with the rnyriad micrcorga.nisms of digestive tracts and feces. The ploaess h.s nor bern demonstrated ro affect sporredormancy as yer. Indeed root exuda,tes appeat to induce gerrnination of some hypogeous mycorrhizal fungi without mycophagy ( Palenzona, 1969; Bowen and Theodorous, \974). Sirce osseotially no research has been reported on the physiological effects of mycophagy o,n spo(es, the quesrion lemains moot. Mycopbagy in Ecosystem AnzJlsis Invertetrates and venebrates that feed wholly o,r in lnrt on fungi have been arbitrarily categorized either as herbivores or fungal decomposers No generalization fits com- fortably, however, because the fungi may be saprophytes, biotrophic or necrocophic symbionts, or predators ( Hadey, 1971; Lewis, 1973). Althor.rgh necrotrophic syrnbionts "living may be considered tisoue saprophytes" for purposes of ecosystem modeling, the biotrophic symbionrs such as mycorhizal fungi po.sea special problem: the struc- tural and physiological interdependence of firngus and host p,reclude their concE rual separa.ion either physically or functionally. One solution to this problem is to consider mycorrhizal fungi as exteruions of the host root system, since the fungi are essenrial ro nutrient atsorptio,n by the hoet and the fungi obtaio rheir energy from the h st much as if they were indeed root tissue. Thus the mycorhizal fuogi can be regarded as organs of producer plants. Mycophagists that feed on mycorhizal fungi are then glazes. Gnzing of mycorrhizal fungi arcouns for about 7) percent of the small mamrnal mycophagy in terms of rhe tqnrts listed later in this pa1rr, evaluated as known or presrrmed mycorrhizal taxa (Ttape, l)62, 1971). If only reports of stomach conrents are considered, rhe percenrage is considerably higher. Mycopbagy of saprophytes, necrotrophic sym io,nts, or predarcrs, o! rhe orher hand, can be regarded as part of the de{ornpocer process and accounts fo! about 25 percent of the reports. Ir4any, perhaps most mycophagists feed on both categories of fungi and thereby participate in bo,th processes. Small rnammal mycqrhagy seems zurely to be a significanr energy ransfer process in ecoaystems,but it rcmairu to be quantitatively assesaed.n0'e are aware of only one p@perwith enough information to present a small mammal-fungus carbo,n budget for a short period: C. Srnith (i!65) esrimated the caloric co,nsumptio,nof different food sources by the red squirrel (Tamiascizuut hudtonicut) for the month of August in wesern Washington. During this time, mycophagy accounted for about 73 p,ercent of the squirrels' caloric intake, even rhough coniferous seeds and blueberries .were also available ( Fig. 1 ) . Data from several other paIns were oot usable sirrce prcent volume and frequency values repofted are us€lesswithqut estimates of food consum4rtion,weight, caloric value, sromach size, food density, etc. Modeling can nor lxoceed until integrated studies oo mycophagist food habim and fungal production are complered. 10 Fogel and Trappe Despite inadequate information, mycophagy is cleady important to mammals and fungi alike. More extensive and definitive ioformation is tradty needed, particularly for understanding the dyoamics of small mammal pqp,ulations and for ecosystemmodel- ing; nutrient flow is not a simple matter o4 diffusion through arbiffarily generalized functional groups such as plimary prducers, consumers,or decomposers.
