Abstract
Sarcosoma globosum is a spring-fruiting ascomycete associated with boreal spruce forests characterized by long forest continuity. It is assessed as Near Threatened (NT) according to the global evaluation of International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). We report data of S. globosum in Finland for 1915–2021, before and after availability of digital observation tools (<2015 vs. 2015>). Here, we report in total 586 observations of S. globosum in Finland. We report a huge increase of S. globosum observations since 2015 (+786% average annual increase in observations compared to years 1990–2014). Specimens deposited in public herbaria and data from the environmental authorities have declined. Our results indicate emergence of a new, citizen-based observation culture of fungi. Changes in observation activity may disguise true changes in fungal populations.
期刊介绍：
Fungal Ecology publishes investigations into all aspects of fungal ecology, including the following (not exclusive): population dynamics; adaptation; evolution; role in ecosystem functioning, nutrient cycling, decomposition, carbon allocation; ecophysiology; intra- and inter-specific mycelial interactions, fungus-plant (pathogens, mycorrhizas, lichens, endophytes), fungus-invertebrate and fungus-microbe interaction; genomics and (evolutionary) genetics; conservation and biodiversity; remote sensing; bioremediation and biodegradation; quantitative and computational aspects - modelling, indicators, complexity, informatics. The usual prerequisites for publication will be originality, clarity, and significance as relevant to a better understanding of the ecology of fungi.
