Factors shaping communities of pyrophilous macrofungi in microhabitats destroyed by illegal campfires

► Species structures of pyrophilous fungi (PM) in post-fire habitats depend on a plant community. ► Tilio-Carpinetum and Luzulo pilosae-Fagetum were favourable for PM. ► Leucobryo-Pinetum and xerothermic grassland were less favourable for PM. ► In deciduous forests fire destroys mycorrhizal associations in the upper layer of leaf litter. ► Another important factor for PM was the fertility of soil.
