Abstract
Polypore fungi in the forest-steppe zone of West Siberia were studied, their ecological features were revealed. The xylobiont complex is represented by 128 polyporoid species, among them 120 species develop on the basic forest-forming woody plants. The distribution of polypores species over the breeds of substrate-forming plants was studied, the features of species distribution, their relations on living trees and on dead wood were analyzed, as well as the features of species distribution over topical niches.
