Plot-based observations of macrofungi in raised bogs in Western Siberia (2014-2024)

The dataset presents the results of a long-term monitoring program for larger fungi fruiting using permanent plots located in different vegetation communities of a raised bog in central part of Western Siberia (nearby Khanty-Mansiysk, Mukhrino Field Station). Our goal was to describe the quantitative and qualitative structure and spatial variation of the community of macromycetes, to show its dynamics seasonally and inter-annually and also elucidate the relationship between the fruiting and climate variables. A total of 263 circular 5 m^2 (for a total area of 1315 m^2) plots were visited weekly during vegetation seasons 2014-2024 and carpophores of different fungal taxa were counted. By the end of 2024 vegetation season, 110 series of counts were performed, meaning that each micro-plot was observed 110 times over the 11-years period. The dataset includes about 30K plot-base observations (=sampling events) made from 2014 until 2024 with corresponding about 10K occurrence records of macromycetes identified to species. Plot-based observations with zero records mark absence of species in a certain plot and time. The accumulated collection of specimens corresponding to counting events was sequenced in 2023 and taxonomical names corrected according to molecular identification.
