Abstract

<p>The names of mushrooms were taken from “Colored illustrations of Mushrooms of Japan, Vol. 1 and 2” (Imazeki and Hongo 1987, 1989), and categorized as follows: 1) “endemic” (182 taxa); 2) known to be distributed in overseas countries (815); and 3) distribution range unknown (2931). The overseas distribution of mushrooms in the first category was further assessed using data from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility. The results revealed that 109 taxa were distributed overseas and not classed as endemic; however, the endemicity of 71 taxa was unclear. Therefore, these should be regarded as possible endemic mushrooms.</p>
