ECOLOGIA BALKANICA 2014, Vol. 5, Special Edition April 2014 pp. 107-114 New Data about Some Rare and Interesting Agaricales Species in Bulgaria Maria Lacheva* Agricultural University-Plovdiv, 12, Mendeleev Str., 4000 Plovdiv, BULGARIA * Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. This paper provides information about the distribution of 27 species of Agaricales. Six of them are of conservation value in Bulgaria: Agaricus bohusii, Amanita caesarea, A. ovoidea, A. vittadinii, Batarea phalloides and Chlorophyllum agaricoides. Several other species are reported with new localities in the country (Hymenogaster buliardii, H. hessei, Hygrophorus piceae, Pluteus aurantiorugosus, Coprinus alopecius, Stropharia luteonitens and Tubaria dispersa). New data are reported or confirmations of previous older records are made. Key words: Bulgarian mycota, conservation of fungi, fungal diversity. Introduction of the distribution of the Agaricales in The knowledge about the species Bulgaria. diversity and distribution of Agaricales in Bulgaria is still scarce. Well known and Material and Methods common threatened fungi are in need of The investigated specimens were additional information, confirmation of new collected from different floristic regions finds with voucher specimens in new (Forebalkan, Stara Planina Mts, West localities.
