Abstract
⺠This is the first published systematic study of Irish forest macrofungi. ⺠Sporocarp results from 3 yr were analysed using multivariate statistics and rarefaction analysis. ⺠186 macrofungal species were recorded over 3 yr from four forest types in Ireland. ⺠The fungal communities of ash, oak, Scot's pine and Sitka spruce were significantly different and are described. ⺠Plantation forests contain many native fungal species, but also fungal species not typical of native Irish forests.
