O. Ceska - A <strong>Survey</strong> <strong>of</strong> Macr<strong>of</strong>ungi on Observatory Hill:
Fall 2009 and Winter 2009/2010
Figure 5. Number <strong>of</strong> species found in each collecting season.
(RED: non-mycorrhizal species, BLUE: mycorrhizal species)
At the end <strong>of</strong> the 2009/2010 season, there were enough data accumulated to show
trends and relationships in the number <strong>of</strong> species found in the main mycorrhizal and
non-mycorrhizal genera:
