Fungi are often overlooked in biodiversity surveys though they play an important role in recycling nutrients, as food sources for invertebrates and mammals, in mycorrhizal partnerships, and as aids to germination (in the case of native orchids). This project aims to document the fungi observed in the Else Mitchell Park Bushcare site in Springwood NSW. Coupled with already existing data on plant diversity in the park, and observations of bird, mammal and insect species it will broaden our knowledge of the overall biodiversity and interactions between taxa.
