Wood-inhabiting corticioid basidiomycetes in Norway

This is a data set from the project Artsprosjekt_59-12_Wood-inhabiting_basidiomycetes within the Norwegian Taxonomy Initiative, funded by the Norwegian Biodiversity Information Center (Artsdatabanken). The data set consists of fruitbody observations of corticioid basidiomycete fungi on spruce (Picea abies) logs. Sixty logs were surveyed for fruitbodies in each of the ten Norwegian study localities. Fruitbody specimens were identified by Viacheslav Spirin, Matti Kulju, Sergio Pérez Gorjón, Sten Svantesson and Jenni Nordén. The identification work was supervised by Karl-Henrik Larsson who also checked all the specimens that represent taxa challenging to identify.
