Ectomycorrhizal fungi in Pinus $rigida{\times}taeda$ and poplar stands (Populus $alba{\times}glandulosa$ and others) were collected in 1981 and 1982. A total of 39 mushrooms representing 15 genera were identified from the pine stand, and the major genera were Amanita, Lactarius, Russula, Laccaria, and Boletus. From the poplar stands 16 mushrooms representing 8 genera were identified and 13 of them were the same found in the pine stand. Amanita, Russula, Laccaria, and Leccinum are the major genera in the poplar stands. A single species of Boletus was found in large number in pine and poplar stands. Lactarius was not observed in the poplar stands, while Leccinum was not found in the pine stand. Cantharellus lutescens which has not been reported in Korea was collected in the pine stand.

Diversity, production and nutrients concentrations of mushroom in a pitch pine forest (Pinus rigida) were studied from March through November 2000 in Kongju, Chungnam Province. Fifteen $2{\times}2m$ permanent quadrats were established randomly in the study area. 32 species of mushrooms were identified in the permanent quadrats during the study period. Although mushrooms occurred from June to October, the heighest diversity and biomass production occurred in August and September. Seasonal dominant species were Collybia confluens in July, Cantharellus lutescens in August and September, respectively. Annual production of mushrooms were 12.13kg $Dwha^{-1}yr^{-1}$. Seasonal production was 0.71kg $Dwha^{-1}$ for July, 3.95kg $Dwha^{-1}$ for August and 6.92 kg $Dwha^{-1}$ for September, respectively. Average concentrations of N, P, K, Ca and Mg in mushrooms was $38.81{\pm}4.82, \;0.90{\pm}0.44,\;28.47{\pm}7.81,\;0.24{\pm}0.16\;and\;0.76{\pm}0.26mg\;g^{-1}$, respectively, which were much higher than those in leaf litter and soil of the study site. Amount of N, P, K, Ca and Mg accumulated in mushrooms in 2000 was 463.41, 10.26, 345.21, 3.14 and $8.99g\;ha^{-1}yr^{-1}$, respectively.
