The aim of this study is to investigate the species composition and significance of beech-wood decomposing macromycetes. A total of 101 species of macromycetes were found on beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) in Azerbaijani forests. All species of xylotophic macromycetes belonged to 52 genera and 13 families of the orders Aphyllophorales, Polyporales, Agaricales and Auriculariales from the subdivision Basidiomycotina. The greatest part (79%) of xylotrophic species is represented by the order Aphyllophorales, species of Polyporales compose 10.9%, Agaricales 8.9%, and only one species belonging to the order Auriculariales. The Poriaceae family takes first place in terms of the number of species …

It is of great importance to study the activities of fungi in forest ecosystems for both protecting them and optimizing their functions. In this study, we present 130 species of xylotroph micromycetes found on six different species of oak in Azerbaijan. Of the species found, 54 were from 38 genera from 10 families of the Ascomycotina subdivision. Thirty-four were of the Pyrenomycetes class in which many have stromas or their peritheciums formed in dense groups. The majority of these species were found on wood in the initial phase of decomposition. The Loculoascomycetes and Discomycetes class were represented by 18 and …
