Abstract

Úrtak

59 sløg av taðfrekum soppum eru skrásett úr 20 taðsýnum, ið eru tikin í Føroyum, og sum eru ald í ráligum kømrum. Nógv nýggj sløg eru funnin fyri fyrstu ferð í Føroyum. Fleiri sløg eru funnin í sýnum, sum eru tikin av seyða- og harusparlum, og eru tey tikin á 7 ymsum støðum. Greiningar av hesum sløgum hava gjørt tað møguligt at gera ein partleysan samanburð av soppamegninum í tveimum ymsum sløgum av tøðum og til at vísa, at hesi megn eru týðiliga ymisk, hóast tey stava frá sama búøki.

Abstract

Fifty-nine species of coprophilous fungi are recorded from 20 dung samples collected from the Faroe Islands and incubated in moist chambers. Many new records for the Faroe Islands are reported. Analysis of the species occurring on pairs of sheep and hare samples collected from seven different localities have allowed an objective comparison of the mycobiota on two different dung types to be made, and the demonstration that they are clearly different, although derived from the same habitat.
