Description

Data from the project «Fungi in Norway’s Coastal Heathlands” (FiNCH) funded by the Norwegian Biodiversity Information Center. The project inventoried above- and below-ground ascomycetous fungi in 8 coastal heathlands in Vestland county, Norway, and one heathland in the Dividalen region of Norway.

Sampling Description

Study Extent

Root systems were collected from six focal ericaceous species in each of 8 coastal heathlands.

Sampling

All plants were collected a minimum of 25m from edges, with at least 10 m between individual plants.

Method steps

Litter, stems, and leaves with visible fungal structures were collected along random walk transects in all 8 localities.
