【 摘 要 】

Eighty mushroom species were collected during a field study at Conservative Forest in Batu Katak resort, Langkat regency, North-Sumatera. Inventory was conducted by exploring four accessible paths and mushrooms were recorded for its identity and growth substrates. The most common mushroom species found in this study were lignicolous species, i.e. Polyporus, Marasmius, Schizophyllum, Trametes and Xylaria. The most utilized substrates for mushroom growth were dead logs which indicate a light-penetrated area of opened gap in forest favoring the growth of bracket fungi or lignicolous species. This baseline study may be used as data record for further mycological and laboratory studies. In addition, our records may be utilized as valuable information to local and foreign tourists who interest of mushroom picking and hunting in the future.
