Collaborative: Survey of Costa Rican Macrofungi

Halling9972018该项目旨在清点哥斯达黎加的大型真菌，并记录新热带区大型真菌的多样性，以进一步了解其生物学。 计划中的大型真菌调查将作为哥斯达黎加可持续生物多样性发展倡议协调的哥斯达黎加生物多样性国家清单的一部分进行。 对学生和副分类学家进行收集和记录大型真菌多样性技术的持续培训，加上由此产生的标本数据库和在线交互式鉴定系统的出版，应使国内专家对大型真菌的进一步研究可持续发展。 由于哥斯达黎加中部和南部山区以橡树为主的森林以外的大部分地区的大型真菌尚未被编目，因此该项目将发现许多以前科学未知的分类群。 这些数据将大大增加新热带真菌学的知识，并将可用于随后的生态学和系统学研究。

Halling9972018This project is designed to inventory the macrofungi of Costa Rica, and to document the diversity of neotropical macrofunti to further understanding of their biology. The planned survey of macrofungi will be done as part of the National Inventory of Costa Rican Biodiversity being coordinated by the Costa Rican Sustainable Biodiversity Development Initiative. Coninued training of students and parataxonomists in techniques of collecting and documenting macrofungi diveristy, plus the publication of the resulting specimen database and an on-line interactive identification system should make further studies of macrofungi sustainable by incountry specialists. Because the macrofungi of most areas of Costa Rica outside of the oadk-dominated forests of the central and southern mountain regions have not been inventoried, this projec will uncover many taxa previously unknonwn to science. These data will significantly add to knowledge of neotropical mycology and will be availabelfor susequent studies on the ecology and systematics.
