Description
This catalogue reproduces a list of occurrences of macromycetes in continental Portugal that have been published or otherwise reported since 1997, with a few earlier additions.
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 1,140 records.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
Versions
The table below shows only published versions of the resource that are publicly accessible.

| Purpose | The information on macromycetes in Portugal is disperse, outdated and limited in scope: the main landmark is the checklist on boletoids and agaricoids prepared by the extinct Centro de Micologia in 2002, covering occurrences until 1997, and without precise geographic references. The recent increase in research on macromycetes urges to the transposition of reported data to publicly available resources such as GBIF. |

| Maintenance Description | The database is updated through the addition of new sources, and whenever the nomenclatural changes or other amendments are required. |
