Title

What is the fungal diversity of marine ecosystems in Europe?

Abstract

In 2001 the European Register of Marine Species 1.0 was published (Costello et al. 2001 and http://erms.biol.soton.ac.uk/, and latterly: http://www.marbef.org/data/stats.php) [Costello MJ, Emblow C, White R, 2001. European register of marine species: a check list of the marine species in Europe and a bibliography of guides to their identification. Collection Patrimoines Naturels 50, 463p.]. The lists of species (from fungi to mammals) were published as part of a European Union Concerted action project (funded by the European Union Marine Science and Technology (MAST) research programme) and the updated version (ERMS 2) is EU-funded through the Marine Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning (MARBEF) Framework project 6 Network of Excellence. Among these lists, a list of the fungi isolated and identified from coastal and marine ecosystems in Europe was included (Clipson et al. 2001) [Clipson NJW, Landy ET, Otte ML, 2001. Fungi. In@ Costelloe MJ, Emblow C, White R (eds), European register of marine species: a check-list of the marine species in Europe and a bibliography of guides to their identification. Collection Patrimoines Naturels 50: 15–19.]. This article deals with the results of compiling a new taxonomically correct and complete list of all fungi that have been reported occurring in European marine waters.
