Abstract
Mycology is a rapidly developing discipline, which has strong connections to the forestry management. To discover these relationships, mycological investigation was carried out in the Sopron Mts (Western Hungary). The monitoring was started in 2010, and it has not been ended so far. Different sampling methods were applied (e.g. random field work, small and large sampling plots) in the past three fruiting periods of macrofungi to understand their applicability. Altogether 364 taxa were documented. Based on our preliminary results, the Sopron Mts is a species rich, diverse area from mycological point of view. Ecologically as well as economically, macrofungi play important role in the life of the forests and forestry managements (e.g. indicator function, nature conservation, health condition, decay of litter and dead wood, secondary source of income, etc.), and their knowledge has several future possibilities in practical use.
