New species of gasteroid fungi in Lithuania

Abstract Two new species of Lithuanian gasteroid macromycetes (Basidiomycota, Lycoperdaceae), Lycoperdon lambinonii and Bovista furfuracea, collected during field surveys in pine forest and calcareous grassland, respectively, were identified. These species have not been found before due to possible confusion with other species and the specificity of habitats such as calcareous grasslands. Descriptions and photographs of the fungi studied and notes on their ecology and distribution are given.
