Abstract
The article presents the results of a study on the ecological structure of discomycetes on the territory of the Central Siberian Botanical Garden of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences - a specially protected natural area. The taxonomic diversity of fungi includes 37 species belonging to 30 genera, 16 families, 5 orders, and 3 classes. Saprotrophic discomycetes are categorized into five ecological groups, among which the largest proportion is occupied by lignophilic and phyllophilic species (81 %), while the smallest proportion is occupied by herbophilic species (4 %). Inoperculate species predominate in all groups. Lignophilic fungi prefer wood of the fourth and fifth stages of decomposition (about 90 %); they have not been found on wood of the first and second stages of decomposition. Edaphophilic discomycetes are mainly represented by operculate species from the order of Pezizales (81.8 %). The group of herbophilic fungi is represented only by inoperculate species from the order of Helotiales.
