The dataset representing a compilation of species lists from published literature on fungal diversity of peatlands globally. Totally 120 literature sources were found, digitized and information on fungal occurrences was extracted in the dataset. About a half of the published works used cultivation technique (summing in about 1000 records in the dataset), another half represent direct observation of fruiting structures of larger fungi (totally about 4000 records in the dataset). The table has 15 fields, including scientificName, habitat (vegetation type), occurrenceRemarks (substrate or other field notes), bibliographicCitation, eventDate, country, and locality. The taxonomic structure of fungal diversity represented by the dataset (after synonimization using GBIF species matching tool) includes 3 kingdoms (Fungi, Chromista, Protozoa), 7 phyla, 26 classes, 80 orders, 212 families and about 1300 species. The larger fungi represent about 960 species, while microfungi only about 350 species.Sampling Description
Study Extent
The purpose of the dataset is to integrate the literature data on fungal diversity in peatlands globally.Sampling
We created a bibliography list, analysed the publications, extracted occurrence records of fungi with related country, habitat, substrate, date and locality (when accessible), verified taxonomy by GBIF Species Matching tool and published the resulted dataset.Method steps
- Bibliography search
- About half of publications were already integrated by Thormann, Rice (2007), we digitized these records
- Other related publications which weren't included in compilation by Thormann and Rice were added. The total list of digitized publications includes 116 published works.
- We used three obligate fields: scientificName, Country, and eventDate, while others were filled in when possible (habitat (vegetation type), occurrenceRemarks (substrate), locality, and others).
- The original scientific names were verified according to GBIF backbone using GBIF species matching tool, all original names were left in verbatimScientificName field
