Background<br />
<strong>Waxcap</strong>s (<strong>the</strong> genus Hygrocybe) have been described as <strong>the</strong> orchids of <strong>the</strong> fungi world<br />
(Marren, 1998). They are often startling in colour from reds, oranges and yellows to whites and<br />
browns. They can smell of honey or cedar wood or, less pleasantly, oily or nitrous. They are<br />
usually found in grasslands in <strong>North</strong>ern Europe although <strong>the</strong>y can also be found in woods.<br />
They are one of <strong>the</strong> groups of grassland fungi that are now recognised as excellent indicators<br />
of unfertilised grassland or “waxcap grasslands” (Arnolds, 1980). “<strong>Waxcap</strong> grasslands” can be<br />
rich in o<strong>the</strong>r grassland fungi and usually include <strong>the</strong> Entolomaceae (pink spored gill fungi), <strong>the</strong><br />
Clavarioids (fairy clubs), Geoglossaceae or earth tongues and species from <strong>the</strong> smaller<br />
genera of Camarophyllopsis, Dermoloma and Porpoloma. Photographs of most of <strong>the</strong> key<br />
species are available at www.nifg.org.uk.<br />
<strong>Waxcap</strong> grassland can be found in a range of grassland types from dunes to uplands, from<br />
lowlands to gardens or churchyards. Indeed in much of <strong>Ireland</strong>, gardens and churchyards<br />
have now often become <strong>the</strong> last refuge of <strong>the</strong>se species, isolated areas that have been spared<br />
<strong>the</strong> addition of fertilisers and which give us a glimpse on what our natural grasslands once<br />
would have looked like. Finding <strong>the</strong> occasional isolated field that has not received large<br />
amounts of artificial fertiliser is incredibly difficult. It is only in upland or coastal areas on<br />
marginal land that waxcap grasslands can be found with more regularity.<br />
Many species are on national red lists across Europe, for example, The Ne<strong>the</strong>rlands has 32<br />
species of waxcap on <strong>the</strong>ir Red List (http://www.mycologen.nl/rodelijst/RL_2008_lst.html),<br />
Sweden has 19 species (http://www.artdata.slu.se/english/redlist.asp), Czech Republic 30<br />
species (http://www.wsl.ch/eccf/Czech07.pdf) and Switzerland 28 species<br />
(http://pilze.ch/roteliste/RListe_kurz.htm). Hygrocybe calyptriformis was on <strong>the</strong> list of fungal<br />
species proposed for inclusion onto <strong>the</strong> Berne Convention in 2003 (Dahlberg and Croneborg,<br />
2003) but which did not progress for various political reasons nothing to do with <strong>the</strong> need to<br />
protect fungi. Grassland fungi provide 9 of <strong>the</strong> 15 fungal species in <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong>’s list of<br />
species of conservation concern. These are <strong>the</strong> waxcaps, Hygrocybe calyptriformis, H.lacmus<br />
and H.ovina, <strong>the</strong> earth tongues, Geoglossum atropurpureum, Microglossum olivaceum and<br />
Trichoglossum walteri along with Clavaria zollingeri, Entoloma bloxamii and Porpoloma<br />
metapodium (see http://www.habitas.org.uk/priority/splist.asp?Type=Fungi)<br />
These species are sensitive to <strong>the</strong> application of artificial fertilisers and it is for this reason that<br />
<strong>the</strong>y are such a good indicator of “natural” grasslands. It was estimated in <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong><br />
that <strong>the</strong> cumulative surplus of phosphorus in <strong>the</strong> soil was 500,000t (Bailey, 1994) meaning that<br />
most of <strong>the</strong> lowland rural <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong> landscape is eutrophicated. There have been<br />
various attempts to discover how long it might take before sites may take to recover after<br />
intensive fertilization. Studies in England looking at <strong>the</strong> improvement in <strong>the</strong> soil<br />
fungal:bacterial biomass ratio due to <strong>the</strong> cessation of fertiliser application found no<br />
improvement after 6 years (Bardgett and McAlister, 1999). Three sites in <strong>the</strong> Ne<strong>the</strong>rlands that<br />
conservation had only up to three species of Hygrocybe after 20 years (Arnolds, 1994) but <strong>the</strong><br />
lack of suitable surrounding habitat may have influenced this very slow recovery. Experimental<br />
plots also in <strong>the</strong> Ne<strong>the</strong>rlands showed that species of Hygrocybe could colonise <strong>the</strong> plots in a<br />
much shorter time period if <strong>the</strong>y were low on phosphorus (Arnolds, 1994). Hence recovery is<br />
probably more related to <strong>the</strong> nutrient status of <strong>the</strong> soils ra<strong>the</strong>r than <strong>the</strong> age of <strong>the</strong> site with<br />
factors like suitable surrounding habitat also playing a role.<br />
There is now greater interest in managing grasslands sustainably without high fertiliser input.<br />
Naturally sustainable grasslands have soils dominated by fungal pathways of decomposition<br />
ra<strong>the</strong>r than bacterial and a high microbial biomass (Bardgett and McAlister, 1999). Given <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
visual prominence in autumn, waxcaps are an indicator group for “natural” grasslands that<br />
offer a means of rapid site assessment. Their presence indicates a wider nature conservation<br />
4
value beyond mycology. It was noticeable that when comparing waxcap distribution with <strong>the</strong><br />
fields found to be most favoured by chough feeding on lea<strong>the</strong>rjackets (Anon, 2004) that <strong>the</strong>y<br />
were completely coincident.<br />
<strong>Waxcap</strong> grasslands however are often not particularly good for higher plants which can mean<br />
that <strong>the</strong>y are missed when designating sites for nature conservation. Statistical studies in<br />
Sweden have shown that <strong>the</strong>re is a low congruence between <strong>the</strong> diversity of Hygrocybe spp.<br />
and higher plants (Öster, 2008) indicating that reliance on higher plants when protecting sites<br />
could well miss sites of high mycological value.<br />
The great unknown however is just what <strong>the</strong>se species are actually doing in <strong>the</strong> soil. One<br />
study (Griffith et al., 2002) points to some possible answers based on stable isotope analysis.<br />
Stable isotopes of Carbon ( 13 C) and Nitrogen ( 15 C) occur naturally and work looking at <strong>the</strong><br />
patterns of 13 C and 15 C enrichment in ectomycorrhizal and saprophytic fungi have shown quite<br />
different enrichment patterns. <strong>Waxcap</strong>s, however, appear different to normal saprophytic fungi<br />
as <strong>the</strong>y are more depleted in 13 C and more enriched in 15 N. Clavarioids and Geoglossaceae<br />
are even more extreme in this trend, but Entolomas are more typical of saprophytic fungi. This<br />
could mean that Hygrocybe spp., Clavarioids and Geoglossaceae could be deep humic<br />
decayers ra<strong>the</strong>r than normal surface litter decayers adapted to N poor conditions.<br />
Assessing site quality from fungal data<br />
The first recognition of grassland fungi in <strong>Ireland</strong> was a paper by (Feehan and McHugh, 1992)<br />
on <strong>the</strong> Curragh and since <strong>the</strong> early 1990s, interest has been growing in this group as it has<br />
been recognised that this unique community is seriously threatened across Europe.<br />
Various systems have been proposed to rank sites for grassland sites for <strong>the</strong>ir fungal<br />
conservation value. (Rald, 1985) in Denmark proposed a system based on <strong>the</strong> number of<br />
species of Hygrocybe, (Nitare, 1988) looked at systems in Sweden, (Jordal, 1997) in Norway<br />
and <strong>the</strong> British Mycological Society instigated a survey giving <strong>the</strong> surveyed sites a CHEG<br />
score (Clavariaceae, Hygrocybe, Entoloma and Geoglossaceae) (Ro<strong>the</strong>roe et al., 1996).<br />
Ro<strong>the</strong>roe <strong>the</strong>n proposed a system that included a weighted score for rarer species that are<br />
restricted to species rich sites (Ro<strong>the</strong>roe, 1999). This was fur<strong>the</strong>r developed by McHugh et al<br />
(2002) when we proposed a weighted scoring system for <strong>Ireland</strong>. One of <strong>the</strong> main drivers for<br />
this was due <strong>the</strong> lack of mycological recording in <strong>Ireland</strong>, we wanted to highlight sites for<br />
fur<strong>the</strong>r visits that had species thought to be rarer or more valuable indicator species.<br />
Weighting species is controversial as in reality <strong>the</strong> data is not available to weight <strong>the</strong>m with<br />
confidence (Griffith et al., 2006; Griffith et al., In Press) but <strong>the</strong> point was to use this in<br />
conjunction with standard CHEG scores and highlight possible interesting sites (McHugh et al.,<br />
2001).<br />
Most of <strong>the</strong> scoring systems above base <strong>the</strong>ir score on species and do not include varieties in<br />
<strong>the</strong> calculation (Rald, 1985), (Nitare, 1988), (Boertmann, 1995), (Vesterholt et al., 1999) and<br />
(McHugh et al., 2001). However, some surveys have counted varieties (Ro<strong>the</strong>roe, 1999) and<br />
(Newton et al., 2002) so it is very important to be clear about <strong>the</strong> basis of <strong>the</strong> system used<br />
when comparing data across regions. For this purpose, <strong>the</strong> definition of species used in all <strong>the</strong><br />
Irish surveys follows <strong>the</strong> Checklist of <strong>the</strong> Basidiomycetes of <strong>the</strong> British Isles (Legon and<br />
Henrici, 2005) and Spooner’s key for Geoglossaceae (Spooner, 1998) with three exceptions<br />
to remain consistent with <strong>the</strong> continental surveys.<br />
• Hygrocybe pratensis var. pallida is <strong>the</strong> only variety included in <strong>the</strong> scoring following<br />
Vesterholt 1999<br />
• Although <strong>the</strong> Checklist of <strong>the</strong> Basidiomycetes of <strong>the</strong> British Isles (Legon 2005) did list<br />
Hygrocybe conicoides as a species ra<strong>the</strong>r than Hygrocybe conica var. conicoides,<br />
Boertmann’s book and his recent interpretation of Hygrocybe in Funga Nordica<br />
5
(Knudsen and Vesterholt, 2008) both still list it as a variety so it is not counted<br />
separately in this study.<br />
• Hygrocybe marchii is considered a synonym of H.coccinea following Funga Nordica.<br />
Despite this, any good database can take <strong>the</strong>se differing definitions into account and a<br />
Microsoft Access database is in use for scoring and ranking grassland sites in <strong>Ireland</strong>.<br />
These site ranking systems primarily look at <strong>the</strong> genus Hygrocybe when ranking sites.<br />
Inevitably <strong>the</strong>re will be sites that are particularly good for <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r target groups and this is<br />
where <strong>the</strong> value of <strong>the</strong> CHEG scores is obvious. Some studies (Griffith et al., 2006) have<br />
added <strong>the</strong> different elements of a CHEG scores toge<strong>the</strong>r but this has to be viewed with caution.<br />
Entoloma is a genus in which species are particularly difficult to identify and being honest even<br />
very good mycologists will often not get every Entoloma identified. Hence <strong>the</strong> Entolomataceae<br />
are not as well recorded and often only partially so an “E” score is often difficult to interpret.<br />
Added to this, <strong>the</strong>re are many more species of Entoloma than in <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r groups so adding<br />
CHEG scores toge<strong>the</strong>r can just end up highlighting sites where mycologists who can identify<br />
Entoloma have visited.<br />

Aims of this project<br />
The main aim of this survey was to provide a baseline survey of grassland fungi in <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong><br />
with <strong>the</strong> study area described below. This project aim was to locate and survey waxcap<br />
grasslands in as many different 10km squares as possible over a two week period between<br />
27/10/10 and 11/11/10. From experience, <strong>the</strong> fortnight around <strong>the</strong> end of October and start of<br />
November is usually <strong>the</strong> best period for fruiting for grassland fungi in <strong>Ireland</strong> as this group<br />
always fruits later than woodland fungi. The target group of species were <strong>the</strong> <strong>Waxcap</strong>s (genus<br />
Hygrocybe), <strong>the</strong> non-woodland Fairy Clubs (Clavariaceae), <strong>the</strong> Pink gills (Entolomaceae), <strong>the</strong><br />
earth tongues (Geoglossaceae) and <strong>the</strong> genera Camarophyllopsis, Dermoloma and<br />
Porpoloma. These species would be thoroughly searched for. Records would be made of<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r species but <strong>the</strong> maps generated may not necessarily be complete for <strong>the</strong>se groups.<br />
The data collected was to be compared with o<strong>the</strong>r Irish data as well as GB data to provide a<br />
British Isles context for <strong>the</strong> <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong> sites. This data and interpretation would also feed into<br />
<strong>the</strong> National Biodiversity Data Centre. All images collected during this survey are available for<br />
unlimited usage for <strong>the</strong> Heritage Council or <strong>the</strong> National Biodiversity Data Centre.<br />
In addition, all published records of fungi that included records for <strong>the</strong> whole of county <strong>Kerry</strong><br />
were entered into a database with an output being a biodiversity species list of fungi for County<br />
<strong>Kerry</strong>. Recommendations are also made on possible fungal Priority species for <strong>Kerry</strong>.<br />

The Study Area<br />
County <strong>Kerry</strong> is too large geographically for a single survey. It was not feasible to divide <strong>the</strong><br />
county along vice county boundaries as <strong>the</strong> two vice counties are disjunct with South <strong>Kerry</strong> –<br />
H1 including <strong>the</strong> Dingle peninsula (Webb, 1980). The original proposal for this survey included<br />
<strong>the</strong> nor<strong>the</strong>rn coast of <strong>the</strong> Iveragh peninsula and missed parts of nor<strong>the</strong>rn <strong>Kerry</strong> in <strong>the</strong> region of<br />
Tarbert. It was decided for practical reasons with <strong>the</strong> aim of minimising travel time and<br />
maximising survey time to change this and have a much simpler north – south division of <strong>the</strong><br />
county with <strong>the</strong> boundary following a line eastwards from <strong>the</strong> sou<strong>the</strong>rn coast of <strong>the</strong> Dingle<br />
peninsula.<br />
Map 1 – Study Area<br />
The Vice county of South <strong>Kerry</strong> is coloured in pink and <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong> in blue. The Study area<br />
border is in purple<br />
As waxcap grasslands are so sensitive to agricultural improvement, <strong>the</strong> best sites are often<br />
steep mountain slopes, inaccessible islands, coastal cliffs, fields that have not been improved<br />
due to owner age or difficult access, estate lawns and churchyards. This means that <strong>the</strong><br />
Dingle peninsula was <strong>the</strong> most likely source of sites and <strong>the</strong> part of <strong>the</strong> vice county of <strong>North</strong><br />
<strong>Kerry</strong> in <strong>the</strong> study area was less hopeful. The uplands to <strong>the</strong> east of Tralee (Stack Mountain,<br />
7
Mullaghareirk and Mount Eagle) are very wet, low and rounded with few steep slopes and<br />
were unlikely to be favourable.<br />
History of mycological recording in County <strong>Kerry</strong><br />
<strong>Kerry</strong> is one of <strong>the</strong> better recorded counties in <strong>the</strong> Republic of <strong>Ireland</strong> for fungi but it is still not<br />
good. Recording has also largely been centred on <strong>the</strong> Killarney area. In a snapshot of <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Fungus</strong> Records Database for <strong>the</strong> British Isles<br />
(http://www.fieldmycology.net/FRDBI/FRDBI.asp), <strong>the</strong> primary source of fungal records for <strong>the</strong><br />
British Isles and a contributor to <strong>the</strong> National Biodiversity Data Centre, <strong>the</strong>re were records for<br />
only 503 different species for <strong>the</strong> vice county of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong> and 484 for South <strong>Kerry</strong> giving a<br />
total of 887 species for <strong>the</strong> whole county. Compare this to 1535 species recorded for Down,<br />
1257 for Antrim, 1091 for Wicklow and 1038 for Fermanagh.<br />

The most significant recording events in <strong>the</strong> county were three visits by <strong>the</strong> British Mycological<br />
Society in 1936, 1946 and 1989. Very relevant to this survey was one visit to Great Blasket<br />
recording grassland fungi by D.J. Bullock in 1975 (Bullock, 1975).<br />
Since <strong>the</strong>se recording events, <strong>the</strong>re has been an increase in interest in fungi in latter years and<br />
<strong>the</strong>re are regular records from <strong>the</strong> county from Tom Harrington, Roland McHugh, Maria Cullen,<br />
Howard Fox, Richard O’Hanlon, <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong> <strong>Fungus</strong> <strong>Group</strong> members amongst o<strong>the</strong>rs. All<br />
<strong>the</strong>se mycologists about records <strong>the</strong>y held for County <strong>Kerry</strong> and thanks must go to Tom<br />
Harrington and Jenny Seawright for providing records and information. The 2011 Bioblitz all<br />
included some fungi records in County <strong>Kerry</strong> and thanks to <strong>the</strong> NBDC for providing <strong>the</strong>se<br />
records.
Digitisation of published records<br />
A significant number of records for County <strong>Kerry</strong> however were published but not available in<br />
any recording database. The various volumes of <strong>the</strong> Catalogue of Irish Fungi by Muskett and<br />
Malone published between 1976 and 1984 list all publications of fungi from before <strong>the</strong>se dates<br />
with Mangan’s paper filling in <strong>the</strong> gaps up until 2000 (Mangan, 2008). All <strong>the</strong> publications<br />
containing records for County <strong>Kerry</strong> that I could obtain were read and records extracted from<br />
<strong>the</strong>m and digitised. The aim was to produce a more complete list of fungi recorded for County<br />
<strong>Kerry</strong> which is hopefully useful for biodiversity strategies for <strong>the</strong> county.<br />
The Muskett and Malone catalogues do not give details of individual records but list all species<br />
recorded in <strong>Ireland</strong> along with a number relating to <strong>the</strong> published reference. In total, <strong>the</strong>y list 31<br />
references containing records that were made in County <strong>Kerry</strong> but I additionally digitised some<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r papers that I came across (see Table 3). The sources are mainly in <strong>the</strong> Irish Naturalist’s<br />
Journal, its predecessor, <strong>the</strong> Irish Naturalist and <strong>the</strong> Proceedings of <strong>the</strong> Royal Irish Academy.<br />
Such journals are not easy to access and under <strong>the</strong> auspices of this grant, I was granted<br />
access to <strong>the</strong> JSTOR Irish collection. JSTOR (www.jstor.org) offers free access to digital<br />
copies of academic papers for research purposes and in 2006, worked with Queen’s<br />
University Belfast to digitise <strong>the</strong> complete back catalogue of 75 journals about <strong>the</strong> natural<br />
history and heritage of <strong>Ireland</strong>. These include <strong>the</strong> journals quoted above. I am deeply indebted<br />
to JSTOR for granting me access to <strong>the</strong> Irish Collection as it made <strong>the</strong> next stage of this<br />
project possible making <strong>the</strong>se journals immediately accessible.<br />
Some additional papers were obtained from <strong>the</strong> British Mycological Society library and thanks<br />
go to Gill Butterfield for help.<br />
Most biological recording databases are set up for rapid data entry of species lists found by <strong>the</strong><br />
observer, i.e. one site / multiple species. Published records however often tend to be<br />
presented <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r way round with species listed one by one along with details of <strong>the</strong> sites at<br />
which <strong>the</strong>y are found listed, i.e. one species / multiple sites. This means direct entry into most<br />
biological recording databases is tedious and time consuming. To solve this, for digitising data<br />
for <strong>the</strong> West Galway survey, I wrote a simple database that simplified this process. As shown<br />
in <strong>the</strong> screenshot below, <strong>the</strong> form allows for <strong>the</strong> selection of a species at <strong>the</strong> top and below this,<br />
a number of sites can be entered for that species. This is saved in a table that fits straight into<br />
<strong>the</strong> Recorder 6 import wizard making <strong>the</strong> records compatible with <strong>the</strong> NBDC data handling<br />
system. As a new site is entered, <strong>the</strong> database remembers this and it is offered in dropdowns<br />
to speed up future data entry. For this project, this database was extended streamlining its<br />
working and adding new attributes to <strong>the</strong> recording form. In this way 679 records from a total of<br />
42 references were digitised and migrated into Recorder 6. Data entry was not restricted to<br />
just those records within <strong>Kerry</strong> but all records in that paper were digitised. This database<br />
speeded up data entry significantly but it remained a time consuming exercise.<br />

Cleaning of <strong>the</strong> Irish Records in <strong>the</strong> FRDBI<br />
The next important source of fungal records is <strong>the</strong> FRDBI itself. The FRDBI is a database<br />
containing over 1.6 million records for <strong>the</strong> British Isles. These records are supplied from a<br />
range of sources including local fungus recording groups, volunteers, <strong>the</strong> Kew and Edinburgh<br />
herbaria and various o<strong>the</strong>r sources. Not every record has a site name, a grid reference or a<br />
county/vice county name as <strong>the</strong> source may be an herbarium package with minimal<br />
information written on it. Equally, <strong>the</strong> information in <strong>the</strong> database maybe incorrect in that <strong>the</strong>re<br />
maybe spelling mistakes in <strong>the</strong> name, <strong>the</strong> wrong grid reference given for a site or <strong>the</strong> wrong<br />
county/vice county given. In 2009, <strong>the</strong> British Mycological Society looked into cleaning its<br />
datasets and I worked with Paul Kirk, <strong>the</strong> FRDBI manager, into this process testing some<br />
ideas in Scotland.<br />
As I had been given access to <strong>the</strong> database for this process, I looked at following <strong>the</strong> protocols<br />
set out to clean <strong>the</strong> Irish records. The aim was to give a grid reference to record with site<br />
names only, to allocate all records with a site name and grid reference <strong>the</strong> correct vice county<br />
using GIS techniques and to fix up spelling mistakes where possible. This was a major<br />
exercise working on 50,754 records. It led to:<br />
• 2,375 records were given a grid reference for <strong>the</strong> first time<br />
• 288 records were given a new grid reference as <strong>the</strong> initial one was incorrect for <strong>the</strong> site<br />
and county given<br />
• 297 records were given a new vice county as <strong>the</strong>y had been allocated <strong>the</strong> wrong one<br />
• 27 records from Great Britain but labelled as being in <strong>Ireland</strong> were corrected<br />
The NBN Record Cleaner (http://www.nbn.org.uk/record-cleaner.aspx), GIS and websites<br />
such as http://irish.gridreferencefinder.com/ were all used in this process but it has led to a<br />
much cleaner dataset and brought a significant amount of records into any data analysis. As<br />
<strong>the</strong> FRDBI is a contributor to <strong>the</strong> NBDC, this cleaner dataset can be provided to <strong>the</strong> NBDC and<br />
discussions are being held about this.<br />
Taking <strong>the</strong> new digitised records, records provided by Tom Harrington and Jenny Seawright<br />
and <strong>the</strong> cleaner Irish FRDBI dataset into account, this brought <strong>the</strong> list of known species of<br />
fungi for County <strong>Kerry</strong> from 887 to 1044 prior to this survey. The species are presented in<br />
Appendix 3 which includes all new species recorded in this survey as well to form an up to date<br />
biodiversity list of fungi for <strong>Kerry</strong>. This list (also supplied as an Excel file) notes if <strong>the</strong> species is<br />
found in <strong>the</strong> vice counties of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong> or South <strong>Kerry</strong> along with <strong>the</strong> source of <strong>the</strong> most<br />
record for this species.<br />

Methodology<br />
The 1:50,000 OSi maps were studied as were aerial photographs available on Google Earth<br />
and (even better) <strong>the</strong> OSi SmartMaps Viewer available at http://shop.osi.ie/shop/. As with <strong>the</strong><br />
West Donegal <strong>Survey</strong> (Mitchel, 2009), ano<strong>the</strong>r key dataset examined in advance was <strong>the</strong><br />
Environmental Protection Agency’s National Soils database (https://maps.epa.ie). Earlier<br />
analysis of <strong>the</strong> waxcap surveys funded by <strong>the</strong> Heritage Council against soil type identified <strong>the</strong><br />
soil types more likely to support waxcaps (Table 4).<br />

Table 4: National Soil Database soil categories and number of grassland fungi records from<br />
<strong>the</strong> Co.Clare (2006), West Cork (2007) and West Mayo (2008) surveys<br />
From this, <strong>the</strong> preference for better drained mineral soils compared to <strong>the</strong> wetter gleys or<br />
blanket peats is marked. National soil datasets are however relatively broad scale and do take<br />
<strong>the</strong> local complexities of soils into account and this is <strong>the</strong> scale at which fungal mycelia operate.<br />
However, with <strong>the</strong> limitations in mind and if taken at a broad scale, such maps can help target<br />
possible new sites and <strong>the</strong> identification of possible sites using <strong>the</strong> soils map helped<br />
significantly in finding new sites.<br />
O<strong>the</strong>r useful datasets used were Geology available from <strong>the</strong> GSI website and <strong>the</strong> Gardens<br />
dataset of <strong>the</strong> National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (http://www.buildingsofireland.ie).<br />
The latter dataset was also digitised allowing <strong>the</strong>m to be plotted in GIS for identifying possible<br />
large estate lawns and included <strong>the</strong>m in site search planning. All churches marked on <strong>the</strong><br />
1:50,000 maps were also digitised in a new layer to highlight <strong>the</strong>ir presence.<br />
Ano<strong>the</strong>r incredibly useful datasource is Google StreetView. This is particulary comprehensive<br />
in <strong>Ireland</strong> and allowed me to view <strong>the</strong> sites in advance eliminating sites that were too wet or<br />
churchyards with no lawn. Without this targeting, this survey would be a lot more difficult with<br />
more spent driving than on <strong>the</strong> ground.<br />
Using all <strong>the</strong>se datasets, <strong>the</strong> most likely sites within each 10km square were identified and<br />
driving routes for each survey day were planned in advance. Each site was visited for as long<br />
as was necessary. Whilst <strong>the</strong> target groups were searched for as priority, all species of fungi<br />
encountered were recorded. However many of <strong>the</strong>se latter records were of a casual nature<br />
and many of <strong>the</strong> species maps produced for <strong>the</strong>se species are very unrepresentative as <strong>the</strong>y<br />
were only recorded if seen and were often not searched for.<br />
12
When notable species were found, specimens were taken for microscopical examination.<br />
Herbarium specimens were dried on a continental fruit drier and are being passed to <strong>the</strong><br />
National Botanic Gardens in Glasnevin as well as <strong>the</strong> Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew. The<br />
target species are listed in <strong>the</strong> Species Reports.<br />

Wea<strong>the</strong>r and Fungal Fruiting<br />
The fruiting of fungi is particularly affected by wea<strong>the</strong>r. Fruiting is often best after warm<br />
summers which are followed by a damp autumn. Generalising, during <strong>the</strong> warm summer, <strong>the</strong><br />
underground mycelia extend and <strong>the</strong>n during <strong>the</strong> damp autumn, fruiting occurs and uses up a<br />
considerable amount of moisture. However, if <strong>the</strong>re is too much rain and <strong>the</strong> top soil layers<br />
become waterlogged, <strong>the</strong> anaerobic conditions hinder <strong>the</strong> production of fruiting bodies<br />
(Ro<strong>the</strong>roe 1999). Containing so much moisture, fungi can be hit badly by frosts but on <strong>the</strong><br />
o<strong>the</strong>r hand, early frosts in October and early November seem to quickly initiate a new batch of<br />
fruiting of waxcaps as long as <strong>the</strong> frosts do not continue for a long period of time. Although<br />
some species of waxcaps can fruit in July (even as early as May), <strong>the</strong> main flush is usually in<br />
late October and early November. In coastal areas in <strong>Ireland</strong>, <strong>the</strong> fruiting period can continue<br />
through December even into January due to <strong>the</strong> infrequency of frosts.<br />
Met Éireann provide summary wea<strong>the</strong>r statistics for various parts of <strong>the</strong> country. The nearest<br />
wea<strong>the</strong>r station is Valentia Island which was particularly relevant for this survey (see<br />
http://www.met.ie/climate/monthly-data.asp?Num=2275 ) and were noted on December 01.<br />

These figures emphasise just what a wet year <strong>2012</strong> has been with staggering figures for June,<br />
July and August. September and October were drier than average however but this<br />
13
combination is not good for fungi. The wet cool summer leads to wet, sodden anoxic soils in<br />
which are not ideal for mycelial growth followed by a drier spell just when <strong>the</strong> fungi need more<br />
water to produce <strong>the</strong> fruiting bodies.<br />

Table 5 – Daily wea<strong>the</strong>r statistics from Valentia Island over <strong>the</strong> study period<br />
In terms of waxcap fruiting, one important measurement not readily available is number of<br />
frost days. As fungi are largely water, frosts can destroy <strong>the</strong> fruiting bodies. From <strong>the</strong> above<br />
daily figures, <strong>the</strong> nights immediately before <strong>the</strong> start of <strong>the</strong> survey had a frost and <strong>the</strong><br />
temperatures did not pick up until <strong>the</strong> second week. The first week was also particularly wet<br />
which was not good given <strong>the</strong> sodden ground.<br />
The wea<strong>the</strong>r for <strong>2012</strong> played a significant role in <strong>the</strong> fungal fruiting pattern and it was not<br />
conducive to good fruiting for <strong>the</strong> reasons mentioned. This was not restricted to <strong>Ireland</strong> and<br />
<strong>the</strong> feeling amongst mycologists in Wales looking at grassland fungi was that it was also a<br />
poor year <strong>the</strong>re. Woodland fungi were also poor in sou<strong>the</strong>rn England (Henrici, <strong>2012</strong>).<br />
The very wet summer was not reflected everywhere in <strong>Ireland</strong> though with <strong>the</strong> more nor<strong>the</strong>rn<br />
wea<strong>the</strong>r stations of Belmullet and Malin Head reporting a normal or drier than average August<br />
and July figures not as significantly high as Valentia Island. Hence it would be fascinating to<br />
know what grassland fungal fruiting was like in <strong>the</strong>se areas.<br />

Summary Results<br />
There are 41 x 10km squares in <strong>the</strong> <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong> study area although some of <strong>the</strong>se have very<br />
small amounts of lands within <strong>the</strong>m. 78 sites in 31 x 10km squares were visited and a distance<br />
of 754 miles was covered within <strong>the</strong> survey area in <strong>the</strong> process. Many of <strong>the</strong>se sites were<br />
small churchyards but o<strong>the</strong>rs were large and took most of <strong>the</strong> day to survey. Due to time<br />
restrictions as I was trying to cover as large an area as possible, sites were not visited that<br />
involved long walk ins or if it was difficult to organise permissions onto <strong>the</strong> land. Wea<strong>the</strong>r<br />
conditions prevented visits to <strong>the</strong> islands of Great Blasket, Inishvickillane and Illauntannig<br />
which were planned and permissions had been obtained for <strong>the</strong>se islands. This was a great<br />
shame as <strong>the</strong>se were possibly <strong>the</strong> best sites in <strong>the</strong> study area. Details of all <strong>the</strong> sites and <strong>the</strong><br />
species found are shown in Appendix 2.<br />
The headlines from this survey are:<br />
• Overall, this was <strong>the</strong> poorest survey in this series along <strong>the</strong> Irish west coast<br />
• Only 237 records were made of <strong>the</strong> target species compared to 430 in West Galway<br />
(Mitchel, 2010), 524 in West Cork (Mitchel, 2007) and 546 in West Donegal (Mitchel,<br />
2009).<br />
• Fairy Clubs and Entolomas were almost absent apart from a few common species<br />
• The best site (Glennahoo) had 15 species of waxcap and <strong>the</strong>re were only 5 o<strong>the</strong>r sites<br />
with over 10 species.<br />
• Glennahoo is now <strong>the</strong> 32nd best site in <strong>Ireland</strong><br />
• Six species new to <strong>the</strong> Republic of <strong>Ireland</strong> were found with five of <strong>the</strong>se being new to<br />
all <strong>Ireland</strong>.<br />
• The species new to all <strong>Ireland</strong> were:<br />
o Amanita betulae<br />
o Arrhenia griseopallida<br />
o Galerina atkinsoniana<br />
o Hebeloma collariatum<br />
o Pluteus nanus<br />
• The species new to <strong>the</strong> Republic of <strong>Ireland</strong> was:<br />
o Geoglossum uliginosum<br />
• 48 species were recorded as new to <strong>Kerry</strong><br />

Notable Finds<br />
New Irish Records<br />
There are no published records or records for <strong>Ireland</strong> in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Fungus</strong> Records Database for <strong>the</strong><br />
British Isles (FRDBI) hosted by <strong>the</strong> British Mycological Society or <strong>the</strong> National Biodiversity<br />
Data Centre for <strong>the</strong> following species:<br />
Amanita betulae Neville & Poumarat<br />
16
This is species was newly described in 2004 and was possibly been recorded in <strong>the</strong> past as a<br />
variety of Amanita vaginata or Amanita fulva but is now a separate species. It is always found<br />
under Birch, has a dull brown colour ra<strong>the</strong>r than <strong>the</strong> grey of A.vaginata or <strong>the</strong> rich bright brown<br />
colour of A.fulva. Like all members of <strong>the</strong> Amanitopsis group, it does not have a ring but does<br />
have brown zig zag markings on <strong>the</strong> stipe. The volva (<strong>the</strong> “egg shell” at <strong>the</strong> stipe base) is not<br />
ochreous spotted and microscopically it contains numerous large sphaerocysts or large round<br />
cells (Kibby, 2011). Found in Annascaul: Sacred Heart Church (Q597019) on 31 st October<br />
<strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Arrhenia griseopallida (Desm.) Watling<br />
This small species with thick decurrent gills can smell very strongly of pelargonium despite its<br />
small size. Noted microscopically by having clamps and long narrow spores. Widely although<br />
not commonly recorded in Great Britain, it is surprising it has not been recorded in <strong>Ireland</strong><br />
before and is possibly overlooked. For photos, see<br />
http://www.leifgoodwin.co.uk/Fungi/Arrhenia%20griseopallida.html or<br />
http://www.biopix.com/arrhenia-griseopallida_photo-97891.aspx.<br />
Galerina atkinsoniana A.H. Sm.<br />
This is an overlooked species ra<strong>the</strong>r than a rare species. For good photos, see<br />
http://www.hlasek.com/galerina_atkinsoniana.html. It is distinguished by having 1, 2 and 4<br />
spored basidia and numerous cystidia in <strong>the</strong> cap (pileocystidia). The latter feature<br />
distinguishes it from G.vittiformis. Found in Lough Adoon at Q528070 on 11 th November <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Hebeloma collariatum Bruchet<br />
This species is very rarely recorded in <strong>the</strong> British Isles. It is not accepted in <strong>the</strong> Checklist of <strong>the</strong><br />
British Isles as <strong>the</strong>re are no voucher specimens in <strong>the</strong> Kew herbarium (Legon and Henrici,<br />
2005) but <strong>the</strong> FRDBI does list 23 records from England. It was distinguished as a small<br />
17
species only up to 2cm with a cortina present, spores on average 11.6 x 6 µm, a stipe that was<br />
darkening to a brown colour and being associated with Salix repens in a large dune slack at<br />
Inch Dunes. It was found in <strong>the</strong> bare sand on <strong>the</strong> outside of a clump of Salix repens. Found at<br />
Q653002 on 6 th November <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Pluteus nanus (Pers.) P. Kumm.<br />
I was very surprised not be able to find any published or databased records for this species.<br />
There are 487 records for it in Great Britain which makes it one of <strong>the</strong> most commonly<br />
recorded members of this genus. Noted by its cellular cap structure, its dark cap colour, pale<br />
stipe and being found in <strong>the</strong> foredunes amongst Marram grass. Found at Banna Strand at<br />
Q752223 on 01/11/<strong>2012</strong>. I had reported P.griseoluridus from West Donegal in 2009 and will<br />
review <strong>the</strong>se records as <strong>the</strong>y may well be this species.<br />
New Records for <strong>the</strong> Republic of <strong>Ireland</strong><br />
Geoglossum uliginosum Hakelier<br />
This earth tongue was found as a single fruiting body 6cms long with a stalk 2mm wide<br />
enlarging to 6mm at <strong>the</strong> head. The stipe was viscid but not as much as G.glutinosum. Spores<br />
were up to 70µm long and 7 septate. The paraphyses were generally apically dilated and<br />
constricted at <strong>the</strong> septae. In Sweden it is known from wet grassland sites and here it was<br />
found at Kilballylahiff at Q628088 on 4 th November <strong>2012</strong>. It was found in a very wet spot<br />
surrounded by standing water but this was in exceptionally wet conditions. The slopes above<br />
<strong>the</strong> road were a moderately steep sheep grazed hillside with clumps of Ulex gallii, Ulex<br />
europaeus and Molinia caerulea. Mosses were a major constituent of <strong>the</strong> sward. When we<br />
were <strong>the</strong>re, <strong>the</strong> whole hillside was soaking wet with surface water running down <strong>the</strong> slopes.10<br />
species of waxcap were found.<br />

This species has been recorded once before in <strong>Ireland</strong> in 2004 from Greenan Mountain in<br />
Tyrone recorded by Liz Holden during <strong>the</strong> <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong> <strong>Waxcap</strong> <strong>Survey</strong>. Liz describes <strong>the</strong><br />
site as a poor bit of acidic sheep walk with lots of rushes and very little of interest apart from<br />
<strong>the</strong> Geoglossum uliginosum which I have recorded as growing with Sphagnum (Liz Holden<br />
pers comm.).<br />
There are 5 records from Scotland and one from Wales in <strong>the</strong> FRDBI but as Johan Nitare<br />
wrote in <strong>the</strong> Swedish Action Plan for this species, <strong>the</strong>re was thoughts that <strong>the</strong> UK records may<br />
represent a different species (Nitare, 2007). The specimen was thus sent to him he confirmed<br />
this determination making this <strong>the</strong> first confirmed record of G.uliginosum Hakelier in <strong>Ireland</strong>.<br />
The authority (Hakelier) is important as Johan Nitare describes that Nils Hakelier described<br />
<strong>the</strong> species from Sweden in 1967 (Svensk Bot. Tidskr. 61: 419-424). The problem with <strong>the</strong><br />
name “G. uliginosum” is that Persoon also used this name for a fungus in 1796, but <strong>the</strong> sense<br />
in which he used it is unclear. The name G.uliginosum Hakelier can be seen as a younger<br />
homonym of G.uliginosum Pers. hence <strong>the</strong> confusion about <strong>the</strong> British records as it was not<br />
known which description was being followed.<br />
Brian Spooner’s key to <strong>the</strong> British Geoglossaceae excluded G.uliginosum Hakelier in 1997 as<br />
<strong>the</strong>re were no herbarium specimens from <strong>the</strong> records at that time although <strong>the</strong>re is now one<br />
specimen from Scotland from 2001 collected by Ern Emmett in Duchalton in Easterness<br />
(http://www.fieldmycology.net/FRDBI/FRDBIrecord.asp?intGBNum=46799). Alan Silverside’s<br />
key from 1997 lists G.uliginosum but not <strong>the</strong> authority but I did use this key along with Nordic<br />
Macromycetes Vol 1 which lists <strong>the</strong> Hakelier species to make <strong>the</strong> identification.<br />
This species is subject to a lot of conservation work in Sweden with its own Action Plan with a<br />
five year budget of SEK 250,000. The main actions were site surveys, clearing of scrub and<br />
controlled grazing preferably by cattle. This species has also recently been found in <strong>the</strong> Czech<br />
Republic and Slovakia and a paper is in preparation reporting this. The sites <strong>the</strong>re looked very<br />
similar to Kilballylahiff with wet meadow or peat bog with Molinia caerulea, Deschampsia<br />
cespitosa and Sphagnum spp (Viktor Kucera pers comm).<br />

O<strong>the</strong>r Notable Records – Target Species<br />
Hygrocybe calyptriformis (Berk. & Broome) Fayod<br />
The pink waxcap that is <strong>the</strong> talisman of <strong>the</strong> group. Found at Glennahoo on 4 th November <strong>2012</strong><br />
at Q551081.<br />
Hygrocybe vitellina (Fr.) P. Karst.<br />
Found on <strong>the</strong> West Galway survey as well, it is noted by its small stature, umbilicate cap and<br />
viscid edge to <strong>the</strong> gill. Found at Brandon Point on 29/10/<strong>2012</strong> at Q525173.<br />

Geoglossum atropurpureum (Batsch) Pers.<br />
One of <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong>’s Priority Species<br />
(http://www.habitas.org.uk/priority/species.asp?item=17906) and a UK BAP species. Like<br />
most earth tongues, it is not easy to identify in <strong>the</strong> field although a purplish tinge can be seen<br />
with this species. Noted under <strong>the</strong> microscope by non-septate spores 18-33µm long and with<br />
brown amorphous matter giving a very different look under <strong>the</strong> microscope to most earth<br />
tongue squashes. Which genus this species is in has always given difficulty with it often been<br />
placed in Thuemenidium. Recent DNA work suggests that this species is more related to<br />
Microglossum with more work needed to confirm this (Ohenoja et al., 2010). Retained here as<br />
Geoglossum atropurpureum to remain consistent with priority species lists. Found at Dunmore<br />
Head on 30/10/<strong>2012</strong> at V307982 and Glennahoo on 04/11/<strong>2012</strong> at Q551081. For photographs,<br />

Microglossum olivaceum (Pers.) Gillet<br />
One of <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong>’s Priority Species<br />
(http://www.habitas.org.uk/priority/species.asp?item=17521) and a UK BAP species, this is a<br />
distinctive earth tongue with brown and green colours. Quite amazingly, it was found in an<br />
unremarkable churchyard in Ballybunnion (St John's Church) on 07/11/12 at Q866415. This<br />
was <strong>the</strong> only fungus in <strong>the</strong> churchyard which was very wet and squelchy. This does indicate<br />
though that <strong>the</strong> site should be revisited. The photograph below was on taken on Clare Island<br />
on <strong>the</strong> West Mayo survey (Mitchel, 2008).<br />
Trichoglossum walteri (Berk.) E.J. Durand<br />
Ano<strong>the</strong>r of <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong>’s Priority Species<br />
(http://www.habitas.org.uk/priority/species.asp?item=17921). A black earth tongue. Earth<br />
21
tongues are almost impossible to identify in <strong>the</strong> field and must be microscopically checked.<br />
Trichoglossums can however sometimes be recognised as with a hand lens, <strong>the</strong> black setae<br />
stick out like small needles on <strong>the</strong> stem. T.walteri is distinguished by <strong>the</strong> much more common<br />
T.hirsutum by spores that are 7 septate instead of 15 septate. Found at Glennahoo on<br />
04/11/<strong>2012</strong> at Q551081. For a photo, see<br />

O<strong>the</strong>r Notable Records – non-Target Species<br />
Agaricus impudicus (Rea) Pilát<br />
This agaric can be quite dark and scaly, sometimes vinaceous in colour when young with <strong>the</strong><br />
squamules spreading out as <strong>the</strong> cap expands. If sliced, <strong>the</strong> flesh is almost unchanging but <strong>the</strong><br />
lamellae bruise red especially when young. It is also noted for small spores in <strong>the</strong> range of 4.5<br />
– 7 x 3.2 – 4.2 µm. Known mostly as woodland species, in <strong>the</strong> west of Britain, it is also found<br />
in grasslands and was found on this survey at Dunmore Head on 30/10/<strong>2012</strong> at V307982 and<br />
Inch dunes on 6 th November <strong>2012</strong> in <strong>the</strong> fixed dunes on <strong>the</strong> eastern side of <strong>the</strong> peninsula. For<br />
a photo, see http://www.aranzadi-zientziak.org/micologia/a or<br />
http://www.errotari.com/Micologia/especie.php?1007. There are a reasonable number of<br />
records for this species in <strong>Ireland</strong> but <strong>the</strong> habitat is worth commenting on.<br />
Bjerkandera fumosa (Pers.) P. Karst.<br />
The Big Smokey Bracket. This bracket was found on Gorse Ulex europaeus at Lough Adoon<br />
on 09/11/<strong>2012</strong> at Q523088. Note <strong>the</strong> brown line between <strong>the</strong> flesh and <strong>the</strong> pores ra<strong>the</strong>r than a<br />
black line which is typical of <strong>the</strong> more common Bjerkandera adusta. This latter species has a<br />
line concolorous with <strong>the</strong> smoky pores. The o<strong>the</strong>r distinguishing features are its pale cap<br />
colour and slightly smaller spores. The pores on this specimen were darkening on o<strong>the</strong>r parts<br />
of <strong>the</strong> fruiting body. Only one o<strong>the</strong>r record in <strong>the</strong> FRDBI for this species on Gorse. Rarely<br />
recorded in <strong>Ireland</strong> with two modern records by Roy Anderson from Belvoir Forest in Belfast in<br />
1991 and by Neil Sinnot from Dunlewey Demesne in Donegal in 1970 (FRDBI). Older records<br />
are by Rev Lett from Narrow Water Forest in Down in 1883 and by John Templeton “near<br />
Belfast” in 1840. There are records from <strong>the</strong> 1880’s for Dublin and Wicklow quoted in Muskett<br />
and Malone (Muskett and Malone, 1980) but <strong>the</strong>ir references do not seem correct. It is not<br />
mentioned in one article (Pim and McWeeney, 1893) and <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r could not be sourced.<br />
22
Coprinopsis ammophilae (Courtec.) Redhead, Vilgalys & Moncalvo<br />
A small ink cap found in bare sand in foredunes. Found here at Gowland Strand amongst<br />
marram at <strong>the</strong> very dune front at Q561123 on 05/11/<strong>2012</strong>. There are only 17 records of this<br />
species from Great Britain in <strong>the</strong> FRDBI. Found twice on <strong>the</strong> West Donegal survey in 2009<br />
from Portacurry dunes at B71531774 and Ballymastocker Dunes at C252379. Also found at<br />
Mullaghmore Dunes in Sligo on <strong>the</strong> BMS foray in 2000.<br />
Coprinopsis semitalis (P.D. Orton) Redhead, Vilgalys & Moncalvo<br />
A rarely recorded but attractive inkcap that proved to be quite common on <strong>the</strong> Dingle<br />
peninsula. Microscopically it is very distinctive as <strong>the</strong>ir spores have a loosening outer coating<br />
(<strong>the</strong> perispore) that loosens and makes it look like <strong>the</strong> spores have wings! Found at<br />
Mullaghveal at Q469069 on 29/10/<strong>2012</strong>, Glennahoo at Q551081on 04/11/<strong>2012</strong> Faha Grotto at<br />
Q492120 on 05/11/<strong>2012</strong>, St Brendan's Church, Clogher at Q931132 on 08/11/<strong>2012</strong> and<br />

Cortinarius saturninus (Fr.) Fr.<br />
Only two previous records for this species from <strong>the</strong> Republic of <strong>Ireland</strong> from Glengarriff in<br />
West Cork in 1936 and <strong>the</strong> Vale of Clara in Wicklow on 14/10/2004 recorded by Roland<br />
McHugh. Recorded six times in Fermanagh on <strong>the</strong> 2000 British Mycological Society foray.<br />
Found here in Inch Dunes associated with Salix repens in a large dune slack beside <strong>the</strong> find of<br />
Hebeloma collariatum at Q653002 on 06/11/<strong>2012</strong>.<br />
24
Lepiota erminea (Fr.) P. Kumm.<br />
As it name suggest, this is a pure white Lepiota with free gills, a ring on <strong>the</strong> stipe and long<br />
fusiform spores. Typically found in dunes, this is reflected in its records in <strong>Ireland</strong>. Found in<br />
Inch Dunes at V657989 on 06/11/<strong>2012</strong>. Also found at <strong>North</strong> Bull in 1948-50 By R,G.D. Dennis,<br />
Inch Dunes in 1989 by Maurice Ro<strong>the</strong>roe, Cahore Dunes in Wicklow in 1998 by Roland<br />
McHugh and Keem Strand on Achill in 1998 also by Roland McHugh. For photos, see<br />

Macrotyphula fistulosa var. fistulosa (Holmsk.) R.H. Petersen<br />
A remarkable fungus, like a long needle over 10cm long. It is commonly recorded both in Great<br />
Britain and <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong> (33 records) but, quite amazingly, this is only <strong>the</strong> third record for<br />
<strong>the</strong> Republic of <strong>Ireland</strong>. The only o<strong>the</strong>r records are from 1910 by Carleton Rea and Henry<br />
Hawley from Achill Island and Belclare Woods in West Mayo. The o<strong>the</strong>r variety, var, contorta,<br />
is also rarely recorded with <strong>the</strong> only modern record being from Jenny Seawright at Muckros<br />
Woods in Killarney in 2009 (see http://www.irishlichens.ie/pages-fungi/f-50.html). This species<br />
has to be under-recorded. Found at <strong>the</strong> Sacred Heart Church in Annascaul at Q597019 on<br />
31/10/<strong>2012</strong>.<br />
25
Pholiota lenta (Pers.) Singer<br />
Not uncommonly recorded in Great Britain but with very few records in <strong>Ireland</strong>. This is a large<br />
pale Pholiota with a sticky cap often found under Beech. It was found with this association in<br />
Glanteenassig Forest in a young Beech plantation at Q620084 on 04/11/<strong>2012</strong>. There are only<br />
six Irish records for this species: From Glengarriff in West Cork in 1884, Brackenstown in<br />
Dublin in 1893, Shaw’s Bridge in Belfast in 1930, Ross Island, Killarney in 1936 and Drumlish<br />
in Tyrone in 1982 and 1983 by Robert McIlwaine. For photos see<br />

Stropharia inuncta (Fr.) Quél.<br />
Ano<strong>the</strong>r species commonly recorded in Great Britain but with few Irish records. Noted by its<br />
very slimy cap (note <strong>the</strong> slime on <strong>the</strong> top right of <strong>the</strong> photo), lack of a ring and smallish spores,<br />
it can have a grayish violet colour but this was a young specimen. Recorded in <strong>Ireland</strong> before<br />
from Brittas Bay in Wicklow in 1896, County Dublin in 1898, 1953 (Killakee Mountain) and<br />
1958 (<strong>North</strong> Bull) and in Newtownstewart in Tyrone in 2004 by Shelley Evans. Found here in<br />
Inch Dunes at V657989 on 06/11/<strong>2012</strong>.<br />
New Vice County Records<br />
155 species of fungi were recorded on this survey. Of <strong>the</strong>se 48 are new to County <strong>Kerry</strong>.<br />
Regarding <strong>the</strong> vice counties, 79 species are new to <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong> (H2) and 117 species are new<br />
to South <strong>Kerry</strong> (H1). While this may seem impressive, when species like Coprinellus<br />
micaceus, Flammulina velutipes, Galerina vittiformis, Lichenomphalia umbellifera or<br />
Panaeolus acuminatus are being added to a county list, this indicates a low level of recording.<br />

O<strong>the</strong>r notable wildlife observations were as follows:<br />
Chough (Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax) were seen at Slea Head on 30/10/<strong>2012</strong>, <strong>Kerry</strong> Head on<br />
01/11/<strong>2012</strong>, Clogher Head on 02/11/12, Clogher Head and Sybil Point on 03/11/<strong>2012</strong>,<br />
Beennaman on 03/11/12, Inch Dunes on 06/11/12 and Ballybunnion on 07/11/12.<br />
One Irish Hare (Lepus timidus subsp. hibernicus) were seen at Doonties Common at<br />
V496894 on 31/10/12<br />
One Pygmy Shrew (Sorex minuta) was seen at <strong>Kerry</strong> Head on 01/11/<strong>2012</strong>. This was right at<br />
<strong>the</strong> cliff edge where it was burrowed in <strong>the</strong> spongy Thrift turf and our walking over <strong>the</strong> turf<br />
made it abandon its hole looking for new cover.<br />
A washed up log at Ballyferriter Beach was found covered in Goose Barnacles<br />
(order Pedunculata) where <strong>the</strong> smell was almost overpowering. They were all dead but <strong>the</strong>se<br />

10km square and Site Rankings<br />
Both <strong>the</strong> total 10km squares and individual sites were ranked according to numbers of species<br />
of Hygrocybe. Map 2 shows <strong>the</strong> distribution of <strong>the</strong> 10km squares surveyed and <strong>the</strong> number of<br />
species of Hygrocybe found in each square. Appendix 1 gives full 10km and site species lists.<br />
Map 2 – 10km squares surveyed with number of species of Hygrocybe recorded<br />
This was a difficult survey with fruiting sparse and waxcaps difficult to find. The overall number<br />
of records of target species found (237), <strong>the</strong> number of target species found (40) and number<br />
of sites with 10 or more species (6) were all <strong>the</strong> lowest numbers found in <strong>the</strong>se six surveys for<br />
<strong>the</strong> Heritage Council (see Table 6). This does not necessarily mean that <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong> is poor for<br />
waxcaps but it does mean that fruiting was poor in this two week survey period.<br />
Map 2 shows <strong>the</strong> distribution of species of Hygrocybe by 10km square and follows a<br />
predictable pattern of <strong>the</strong> best sites being in <strong>the</strong> steeply mountainous and coastal areas with<br />
<strong>the</strong> flatter lowlands having few species. Such lowland areas can have good sites but finding<br />
<strong>the</strong>m is very difficult as <strong>the</strong>y will be more unpredictable sites like lawns around large houses,<br />
churchyards or small fields which for various reasons have had little artificial fertilisers added.<br />
The Dingle peninsula is highly mountainous with very high rainfall. Much of <strong>the</strong> upland is<br />
blanket bog which is not suitable for grassland fungi so <strong>the</strong> sites found were often steep<br />
hillsides, especially <strong>the</strong> steep glacial valleys between Slievanea to Stradbally Mountain where<br />
<strong>the</strong> classic U shaped valleys cut deep into <strong>the</strong> hills provided <strong>the</strong> best sites on this survey.<br />
29
Dingle has three mountainous bulks. This central range, <strong>the</strong> western range of Mount Brandon,<br />
<strong>the</strong> second highest mountain in <strong>Ireland</strong> and <strong>the</strong> eastern Slieve Mish range. The Mount<br />
Brandon area was not as good as <strong>the</strong> valleys cutting into <strong>the</strong> hills were not as steep and were<br />
hence wetter and boggier. Slieve Mish was also more rounded and very wet and boggy<br />
although some of <strong>the</strong> possible sites involved very long speculative walk-ins and so <strong>the</strong>re was<br />
not enough time to visit <strong>the</strong>se sites.<br />
The offshore islands have without doubt <strong>the</strong> greatest potential. Offshore islands have been <strong>the</strong><br />
best sites on all <strong>the</strong> surveys bar <strong>the</strong> Clare survey (Mitchel, 2006) on which no islands were<br />
visited. All effort should be made to visit at least Great Blasket although all <strong>the</strong> Blaskets except<br />
for Tearaght are probably good. The Maharees have also potential although are lower and<br />
more accessible but are also worth visiting.<br />

Table 8 – Sites ranked by number of Hygrocybe<br />
H=Hygrocybe; C=Clavariaceae; E=Entoloma; G=Geoglossaceae<br />
The best site on <strong>the</strong> survey was Glennahoo, a very steeply sided glacial valley cutting between<br />
Binn an Tuair and Beenbo mountains with 15 species of waxcap found. Notable species found<br />
were Hygrocybe calyptriformis, Hygrocybe flavipes, Geoglossum atropurpureum and<br />
Trichoglossum walteri. Also of note were <strong>the</strong> large amounts of Coprinopsis semitalis. The<br />
valley sides are steep, grassy and well drained with especially <strong>the</strong> spurs between <strong>the</strong> streams<br />
descending straight down <strong>the</strong> slopes being dry and rich in waxcaps. The valley has been<br />
farmed in <strong>the</strong> past with numerous earth bank walls which were very good for waxcaps. Only<br />
<strong>the</strong> eastern slopes were searched so <strong>the</strong> western slopes could be searched on future visits<br />
although being more shaded, <strong>the</strong>y be wetter. Following <strong>the</strong> track up <strong>the</strong> valley, <strong>the</strong> first part<br />
that was of interest was from Q546089 to Q547091 with <strong>the</strong> best areas being <strong>the</strong> high earth<br />
bank walls alongside <strong>the</strong> track. These were very rich. Once past Q547091, <strong>the</strong> valley slopes<br />
became good as well with <strong>the</strong> dry spur at Q553080 being particularly good. Grazing is mainly<br />
by sheep but horses were also present.<br />
31
Glennahoo<br />

The next best site was Lough Adoon just to <strong>the</strong> west of Glennahoo with 12 species of waxcap<br />
(a very low number for <strong>the</strong> second best site on a survey – this would only have been <strong>the</strong> 11 th<br />
best site in West Donegal). Also a steeply side glacial corrie, this valley is full of archaeological<br />
interest and has also been inhabited in <strong>the</strong> past. The steep slopes are however not as<br />
extensive as Glennahoo. The best area is possibly <strong>the</strong> eastern slopes but with <strong>the</strong> previous<br />
night’s rain built on a week of rain, <strong>the</strong> river was far too large and dangerous to cross. The<br />
sward was wetter than Glennahoo with mosses more dominant and subsequently waxcaps<br />
were not as good. Hygrocybe pratensis and H.punicea were particularly common and<br />
H.splendidissima was also found in good numbers. Galerina atkinsoniana was found here for<br />
<strong>the</strong> first time in <strong>Ireland</strong>.<br />
Lough Adoon<br />
33
The third best sites was both had 11 species of waxcap. One was Lough Annascaul just to <strong>the</strong><br />
south of Glennahoo. A very similar site with steep valley sites, this is probably much better<br />
than <strong>the</strong> 11 species found. The fields on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r side of <strong>the</strong> lough (again difficult to access<br />
from <strong>the</strong> public carpark due to <strong>the</strong> river) looked <strong>the</strong> most promising area and would be worth<br />
visiting. This would involve a walk in from a farm at Dromavally. Hygrocybe punicea was<br />
present in large numbers.<br />
Lough Annascaul<br />
The o<strong>the</strong>r site with 11 species was a coastal site which has all <strong>the</strong> hallmarks of a very good site.<br />
It was on Slea Head overlooking <strong>the</strong> Blaskets. The steep fields through which <strong>the</strong> Dingle Way<br />
passes directly above <strong>the</strong> road were full of waxcaps and it has <strong>the</strong> “feel” that it should be much<br />
better. The very steep slopes below <strong>the</strong> road also looked good but with <strong>the</strong> drop over <strong>the</strong> cliffs<br />
are a bit dangerous to survey. The maze of fields above <strong>the</strong> village of Coumeenoole will have<br />
fields of interest without doubt. The higher fields looked less green and lush and would be <strong>the</strong><br />
best ones to target.<br />

The o<strong>the</strong>r two sites with over ten species of waxcap were both odd sites that did not look<br />
promising initially. These were Kilballylahiff and Faha Grotto. Kilballylahiff was a very wet<br />
hillside described earlier when <strong>the</strong> find of Geoglossum uliginosum was discussed. Faha Grotto<br />
was a small area of interest between <strong>the</strong> car park at <strong>the</strong> start of <strong>the</strong> track up Mount Brandon to<br />
a grotto. Both of <strong>the</strong>se sites are unlikely to be significant waxcap sites.<br />
Faha Grotto indicated from <strong>the</strong> lower slopes of Mount Brandon<br />
O<strong>the</strong>r sites of note are as follows:<br />
• Dunmore Head which juts out into Blasket Sound is a dramatic spot with both a classic<br />
short coastal sward and old fields that are no longer being farmed. Unfortunately <strong>the</strong><br />
sward on <strong>the</strong>se fields was too thick and matted and fruiting was sparse as spots like<br />
that can be excellent. 9 species of waxcap were found but likely to be more.<br />
• Bulls Head and Doonties Common on <strong>the</strong> south coast of <strong>the</strong> peninsula to <strong>the</strong> east of<br />
Dingle town looked hopeful from aerial photographs but proved to be very wet with<br />
deep molinia and only scattered areas of grassland on <strong>the</strong> very steepest slopes at <strong>the</strong><br />
cliff edges. Not worth revisiting for waxcaps. 8 species of waxcap were found.<br />
• Eask Tower overlooking Dingle Harbour had limited areas of grassland with most of<br />
<strong>the</strong> upper slopes being too wet and boggy. Some possible areas at <strong>the</strong> cliff edges on<br />
<strong>the</strong> south side of <strong>the</strong> tower but unlikely to be very good. 7 species found.<br />
• Lough Slat. In <strong>the</strong> mold of Lough Adoon, this is a steep side glacial corrie that should<br />
be better and is worth ano<strong>the</strong>r visit. 7 species found.<br />

• Ballynahow. A very surprising site with 9 species found. This was <strong>the</strong> road edge from <strong>the</strong> last<br />
house up to car park for <strong>the</strong> Brandon coastal walk. All <strong>the</strong> surrounding mountainside was far<br />
too wet but this tiny piece of grass had a good number of species. The actual cliff edges at<br />
Beenaman were devoid of waxcaps.<br />
• Tarbert House. Having studied <strong>the</strong> gardens inventory for <strong>the</strong> study area, this was targeted as<br />
one of <strong>the</strong> best old estate houses and thanks must go to <strong>the</strong> Leslie family for <strong>the</strong>ir hospitality<br />
on this visit. The lawn was small but with 7 species in such a small area, it was good and<br />
could well be a site for Hygrocybe calyptriformis.<br />
• Sybil Point. This headland must be better. There was a long earth bank extending right <strong>the</strong><br />
way out to <strong>the</strong> head but <strong>the</strong>re were no fungi at all on it which was hard to explain. There is<br />
good grassland on <strong>the</strong> steep slopes at <strong>the</strong> point itself up to <strong>the</strong> high point by <strong>the</strong> old<br />
watchtower but only 6 species were found. Hard to explain.<br />
• <strong>Kerry</strong> Head. A very wet site with grassland restricted to <strong>the</strong> two points at <strong>the</strong> cliff edge.<br />
<strong>Survey</strong>ing was verging on dangerous in <strong>the</strong> high winds but this site is unlikely to have more<br />
species. The power of <strong>the</strong> wind was awesome with large areas of turf ripped and battered by<br />
<strong>the</strong> winds. 5 species found.<br />
• Brandon Point. 3 species found but 2 additional species found on an earlier visit. This site<br />
looked very promising from a distance but <strong>the</strong> stone walled fields were improved and <strong>the</strong><br />
land above <strong>the</strong> road was extremely wet with possible waxcap habitat restricted to <strong>the</strong> path<br />
side climbing up to <strong>the</strong> watchtower. A good example of how grassland fungi are squeezed<br />
between <strong>the</strong> intensively farmed fields and very wet natural habitat.<br />

Vesterholt et al (1999) estimated that sites with 22+ species of waxcap (which translates to<br />
sites with 15+ in one visit going by <strong>the</strong> graphs) are internationally important and <strong>the</strong> guidelines<br />
for designating SSSIs in <strong>the</strong> UK recommended that sites with 18+ species from multiple visits<br />
and 12+ in a single visit should be considered for SSSI status (Genney et al., 2009).<br />
Additionally sites with 5+ species of Clavariaceae, 12+ species of Entolomataceae or 3+<br />
species of Geoglossaceae should be considered for SSSIs. This would lead to one site being<br />
internationally important (Glenahoo) and one site being of national importance (Lough Adoon).<br />
My personal thought is that some of <strong>the</strong>se thresholds are a bit low for <strong>the</strong> British Isles and 15<br />
species in one visit is too low for international importance. I would suggest with <strong>the</strong> current<br />
data, Glennahoo is of national importance but this would be all. More of <strong>the</strong> Dingle sites could<br />
be of national importance as this was a bad fruiting year, but data is needed to back that up.<br />
Mount Brandon Corries<br />
The corries to <strong>the</strong> south east of <strong>the</strong> summit of Mount Brandon are <strong>the</strong> best montane site in<br />
<strong>Ireland</strong> for vascular plants and lichens (Gilbert and Fryday, 1996). This is because of <strong>the</strong><br />
calcicolous influences on <strong>the</strong> mountain. In an extended visit studying <strong>the</strong> montane lichens,<br />
Gilbert and Fryday found <strong>the</strong> summit itself to of lesser interest with heavy sheep grazing<br />
reducing any terrestrial lichen interest. However <strong>the</strong>y found <strong>the</strong> chain of high altitude tarns<br />
from Lough Cruite up to below <strong>the</strong> final climb to <strong>the</strong> summit to be “outstanding” with <strong>the</strong> tarns<br />
between 460m and 540m to be <strong>the</strong> best. Fungi also have a suite of montane species both of<br />
mycorrhizal species and of saprotrophs. The mycorrhizal fungi are found primarily in<br />
association with dwarf willow, Salix herbacea and Dryas Octopetala in <strong>Ireland</strong>. Saprotrophs<br />
can include species of Hygrocybe and Mark Wright and myself found Hygrocybe<br />
salicis-herbacea for <strong>the</strong> first time in <strong>the</strong> British Isles in <strong>the</strong> Cairngorms in Scotland in 1997.<br />
Mount Brandon corries, Lough Cruite in <strong>the</strong> background<br />

For <strong>the</strong>se reasons, a visit was made to <strong>the</strong> high altitude corries of Mount Brandon to see if <strong>the</strong>y<br />
are also mycologically important. Unfortunately very little was found and <strong>the</strong> habitat does not<br />
look suitable. The site where we found H. salicis-herbacea was on thin peaty and pebbly soils,<br />
but here <strong>the</strong> sward was deep peat and very wet. Some of <strong>the</strong> slopes were more grassy but any<br />
fungi were hard to find. Hygrocybe punicea, H.coccinea and H.laeta were found around <strong>the</strong><br />
corrie shown in <strong>the</strong> photograph above but it is unlikely that this site will have any of <strong>the</strong><br />
montane specialists. In <strong>Ireland</strong>, I would target rockier peaks with thin soils like <strong>the</strong> twelve bens<br />
in Connemara, Nephin or Muckish in Donegal (for <strong>the</strong> latter see(Mitchel, 2009).<br />
Churchyards in <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong><br />
Churchyards and graveyards can be one of <strong>the</strong> refuges for grassland fungi in an intensive<br />
agricultural area. A total of 32 churches or graveyards were visited on this survey and without<br />
fail, <strong>the</strong>y were not good for waxcaps with <strong>the</strong> best sites holding 3 species – St Vincent’s<br />
Church at Ballyferriter (Q355033) and Church of <strong>the</strong> Sacred Heart at Curran (Q943061). Many<br />
of <strong>the</strong> lawns were soaking wet and just not suitable for fruiting although in drier wea<strong>the</strong>r<br />
conditions should be better. Sites like Church of <strong>the</strong> Purification at Church Hill (Q757170), Our<br />
Lady of Lourdes Church at Scartaglin (R039038) or St Bridget's Church at Duagh (R058299)<br />
all had <strong>the</strong> “feel” of a possible but no species were found.<br />
Graveyards often have less “grassland” as <strong>the</strong> graves take up a lot of <strong>the</strong> space. Also cutting<br />
<strong>the</strong> grass tends to be difficult due to <strong>the</strong> lack of contiguous space and <strong>the</strong> grass tends to be<br />
strimmed. With <strong>the</strong> sites visited, it was noted that grass cuttings were <strong>the</strong>n left to lie and this is<br />
particularly damaging to grassland fungi as nutrient levels remain high. It would be good for<br />
biodiversity interest to see cuttings removed.<br />
In <strong>the</strong> six surveys for <strong>the</strong> Heritage Council to date, a total of 143 churches have now been<br />
visited. The top seven churches have all been in West Cork with <strong>the</strong> best having 12 species of<br />
waxcap – namely St Mat<strong>the</strong>w’s Church, Baltimore (W046264 ) with Church of St Comghall at<br />
Lisheen Lower (W037313) and St Mat<strong>the</strong>w’s Church, Drimoleague (W134465) having 10<br />
species. Hillsborough Parish Church in County Down remains <strong>the</strong> best churchyard in <strong>Ireland</strong><br />
with 18 species.<br />
Good churchyards often seem associated with wealth and space. Some of <strong>the</strong> enormous city<br />
centre ca<strong>the</strong>drals are often of little interest due to lack of grassland with much space given<br />
over to car parks. Some of <strong>the</strong> small rural churchyards however say in West Mayo tend to be<br />
built on poor wet ground for farming with dry ground being at a premium. Some of <strong>the</strong><br />
churches in Dingle certainly fell into this category but felt as though <strong>the</strong>y should have been<br />
good but with nothing found left me surprised. I think this was more a function of <strong>the</strong> year than<br />
necessarily if <strong>the</strong> sites were devoid of interest but only more visits will tell.<br />
Sand Dunes in <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong><br />
Sand dune sites in <strong>Ireland</strong> are common especially north of Galway Bay. Dingle is rich in sand<br />
dune sites but generally <strong>the</strong>y tend to be poor for waxcaps in terms of diversity. In terms of<br />
biomass, <strong>the</strong>y can be good with huge numbers of H.conica var. conica and var. conicoides,<br />
H.virginea (all varieties) and H.persistens being common and with H.calciphila being <strong>the</strong><br />
special find. O<strong>the</strong>r mycological interest often centres around <strong>the</strong> presence of creeping willow,<br />
Salix repens, in <strong>the</strong> dune slacks but with surveys being around <strong>the</strong> end of October, start of<br />
November, it is likely that many of <strong>the</strong> mycorrhizal species have been missed as <strong>the</strong>y tend to<br />
fruit earlier.<br />
Most of <strong>the</strong> sand dune sites visited on this survey were typical of <strong>Ireland</strong> in that <strong>the</strong>y were dull<br />
mycologically. Inch Dunes was <strong>the</strong> notable exception. Although not good for waxcaps, it<br />
produced finds like Hebeloma collariatum, Cortinarius saturninus, Lepiota erminea and<br />
Stropharia inuncta. The best sand dune site for waxcaps found in <strong>Ireland</strong> to date is Murlough<br />
43
NNR in County Down with 15 species of waxcap. It is however noticeable that my surveys<br />
again with a late survey date would not have picked this site up as a significant sites. 72% of<br />
<strong>the</strong> waxcap finds are from before October 20 so sand dune and possibly machair sites as well,<br />
are maybe under-recorded in <strong>the</strong>se surveys.<br />

Sites marked in colour have been surveyed in <strong>the</strong> six recent surveys funded by <strong>the</strong> Heritage<br />

number 32.<br />
Map 3 shows <strong>the</strong> number of waxcap per 10km square in <strong>Ireland</strong>. While a comprehensive<br />
survey was run in <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong> between 2002 and 2004, <strong>the</strong> data for <strong>the</strong> Republic is<br />
obviously more sparse and each 10km is often not surveyed so often as in <strong>North</strong>ern <strong>Ireland</strong><br />
but a picture is building up and it is hoped that maps like this will encourage and target more<br />
recording.<br />

Table 10 – Species ranks and comparisons with o<strong>the</strong>r surveys<br />
The interesting points of note here are:<br />
• The complete absence of H.irrigata is noticeable. This also happened on <strong>the</strong> Clare<br />
survey which is very surprising given its middle Irish ranking (22 nd )
• The absence of Fairy Clubs like Clavaria fumosa (30 th in <strong>Ireland</strong>) and Clavaria fragilis<br />
(31 st in <strong>Ireland</strong>) are also surprising<br />
• Less common waxcaps like Hygrocybe nitrata, H.aurantiosplendens, H.mucronella<br />
and H.colemanniana were also missing<br />
• Hygrocybe conica var. conica, H.chlorophana and H.insipida were less common than<br />
normal<br />
• Species like Hygrocybe pratensis, Entoloma conferendum, H.quieta, H.laeta and<br />
Geoglossum fallax were more common than normal<br />
The reasons for <strong>the</strong>se differences are not known but <strong>the</strong>y are worth noting for future survey<br />
notes.<br />
Recommended sites for fur<strong>the</strong>r survey<br />
This list includes sites that scored well as it is felt that <strong>the</strong>y will prove to be better as well as<br />
sites that were seen but not visited. In Appendix 1 which gives <strong>the</strong> 10km and site details, under<br />
each 10km square, o<strong>the</strong>r possible sites are listed. Many of <strong>the</strong>se are purely speculative having<br />
been identified in <strong>the</strong> desk top survey alone but represent my best estimation at good sites<br />
within each square.<br />
• All <strong>the</strong> Blasket Islands: Great Blasket, Inishvickillane, Inishnabro, Inishtooskert and<br />
Beginish. These are probably very good sites but given that <strong>the</strong> wea<strong>the</strong>r is so often<br />
unpredicatable at <strong>the</strong> key waxcap survey time (late October / early November), it will<br />
always be very hard to get onto <strong>the</strong>m. The licence for most of <strong>the</strong> commercial boatmen<br />
finishes at <strong>the</strong> end of September making it difficult to organise any trips out to <strong>the</strong><br />
islands. The wea<strong>the</strong>r has to be good for <strong>the</strong>m to want to go out.<br />
• Glennahoo. The best site and it will be better with large areas of <strong>the</strong> valley still<br />
unsurveyed.<br />
• Lough Adoon. The eastern side of <strong>the</strong> corrie was not surveyed<br />
• Lough Annascaul. The eastern side of <strong>the</strong> Lough was not surveyed and permission<br />
should be gained for <strong>the</strong> steep fields on <strong>the</strong> western side as well.<br />
• Slea Head. This has <strong>the</strong> feel of a good site. Additional areas to <strong>the</strong> north at <strong>the</strong> upper<br />
edge of <strong>the</strong> enclosed fields could be targeted.<br />
• Knockbrack at Q704052 is a steep U grassy corrie that could be very good<br />
• Dunmore Head. Good potential for more species<br />
• Tarbert House. A good lawn and possible H.calyptriformis site<br />
• Illauntannig and <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r Maharees islands. Visits to <strong>the</strong>se islands were not possible<br />
also due to wea<strong>the</strong>r and are worth visiting<br />
• Inch Dunes: Maybe not a great waxcap site but worth surveying for o<strong>the</strong>r fungi<br />
• Connor Pass south. The road south of Connor Pass takes <strong>the</strong> western side of <strong>the</strong><br />
valley. The eastern side could be interesting<br />
• There are a couple of fields on <strong>the</strong> western end of Cnoc na nAcrai at V562993 that<br />
would be worth looking at.<br />
• Sybil Point – this site is bound to be better and is worth revisiting<br />
• Binn Diarmada, <strong>the</strong> north easterly of <strong>the</strong> Three Sisters is worth looking at<br />
• Lough Slat – also likely to be better than on this visit<br />
• Some of <strong>the</strong> fields above Ballinknockane e.g. around Q448112 would be worth visiting.<br />
• Drishoge River valley at Q619078<br />

Grassland fungi are a particularly attractive group that are very threatened all over Europe due<br />
to habitat loss. <strong>Ireland</strong>, along with Great Britain, is one of <strong>the</strong> best areas in <strong>the</strong> world for <strong>the</strong>se<br />
fungi and <strong>the</strong>re are few species groups that we can actually say that for. Two sites (Glennahoo<br />
and Lough Adoon) would qualify for consideration for national site designation under UK SSSI<br />
guidelines (Genney et al., 2009) but <strong>the</strong> poor fungal fruiting during this survey means that a<br />
targeted repeat survey would be useful to get a better picture of <strong>the</strong> status of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Kerry</strong><br />
grassland fungi sites. The Blaskets should be surveyed at <strong>the</strong> correct time of year. However,<br />
site protection could be considered for <strong>the</strong>se two sites and it is my hope that <strong>the</strong>se surveys will<br />
raise <strong>the</strong> profile of this beautiful group by providing <strong>the</strong> data and <strong>the</strong> context to make <strong>the</strong>se<br />
decisions.
Site designation is only <strong>the</strong> first step though as <strong>the</strong> key target is to manage <strong>the</strong>se sites<br />
favourably. It is unlikely that grassland fungi are identified features in <strong>the</strong> management plans<br />
for any of <strong>the</strong>se sites and integrating <strong>the</strong> site management requirements of <strong>the</strong>se fungi into <strong>the</strong><br />
management plans should be looked at. Integrating <strong>the</strong>ir needs into agri-environment<br />
schemes would be ano<strong>the</strong>r important step so it is important to know <strong>the</strong>ir ecological<br />
requirements. Advice on <strong>the</strong>ir management requirements can be obtained from <strong>the</strong> following<br />
sources:<br />
• Natural England’s Grassland Information Note No.4: Grassland Fungi:<br />
http://www.english-nature.org.uk/science/botany/pdf/FUNGI_INFO_NOTE.pdf<br />
• Countryside Council for Wales’s report on Habitat Management to Conserve Fungi:<br />
http://www.ccw.gov.uk/publications--research/research--reports/habitat-managementto-conserve.aspx<br />
In addition, <strong>the</strong> Fungal Conservation Forum produced a very attractive leaflet for landowners<br />
on Grassland fungi which is downloadable at<br />
http://www.plantlife.org.uk/uk/plantlife-saving-species-publications.html. This contains <strong>the</strong><br />
following management guidelines for grassland fungi:<br />
• To keep your grassland well grazed or mown so that <strong>the</strong> turf is short. Remove clippings<br />
wherever possible. Regular cutting does not appear to damage <strong>the</strong> fungi below ground,<br />
but if you want to see what you have, cut less in Autumn to allow fruiting<br />
• To maintain existing field drainage systems where appropriate<br />
• That fertilisers damage grassland fungi and should be avoided if possible<br />
• To try and avoid <strong>the</strong> use of fungicides or use <strong>the</strong>m sparingly, as <strong>the</strong>y may inadvertently<br />
kill useful fungi or fungi you never intended to control<br />
• To avoid using moss killers since <strong>the</strong>se fungi may form intimate relationships with<br />
mosses and may even depend on <strong>the</strong>m<br />
• To avoid lime or apply it with caution since it may damage fungi<br />
I am also willing to help give advice on any issue on grassland fungi at any time.<br />

Acknowledgements<br />
Thanks must go to my wife Jolanda and son Luke for helping with <strong>the</strong> survey work as <strong>the</strong> more<br />
eyes <strong>the</strong>re are, <strong>the</strong> more fungi are found. Thanks also to Tom Harrington and Jenny Seawright<br />
for providing records, Johan Nitare for confirming <strong>the</strong> identification of Geoglossum uliginosum,<br />
JSTOR for granting me web access to <strong>the</strong>ir <strong>Ireland</strong> Collection, Paul Kirk for helping with data<br />
from <strong>the</strong> FRDBI and all <strong>the</strong> landowners who allowed me access onto <strong>the</strong>ir land.<br />
The financial support of <strong>the</strong> Heritage Council is also gratefully acknowledged as without this,<br />
this survey would not have been possible and I can only hope that it helps to raise awareness<br />
of this wonderful group of fungi and this beautiful county.<br />

This should be a better square. Sybil Point is likely to hold more species and continue to be <strong>the</strong> best site in <strong>the</strong> square. Binn<br />
Diarmada, <strong>the</strong> north easterly of <strong>the</strong> Three Sisters would be worth looking at as would some of <strong>the</strong> fields on <strong>the</strong> north of<br />

visit to <strong>the</strong> beach at Murreagh was cut short by dark and might have some of <strong>the</strong> dune species.<br />

The grass areas around <strong>the</strong> oratory are of minimal interest but <strong>the</strong> turf laid on top of <strong>the</strong> stone walls surrounding <strong>the</strong><br />

The steep cliffs up to and around Sybil Point should really be much better . There was a high well drained earth bank<br />
running parallel to <strong>the</strong> cliffs for many hundred metres that should have been full of waxcaps but was completely<br />
barren of any fungi.<br />

This square turned out to be more difficult than I expected with <strong>the</strong> much of <strong>the</strong> land very wet . The valley to <strong>the</strong> south of<br />
Connor Pass is probably <strong>the</strong> best site and <strong>the</strong> east side of <strong>the</strong> valley would be worth checking. Some of <strong>the</strong> fields below<br />
Lough Cruit are probably <strong>the</strong> next best hope.<br />

The steep slopes from Connor Pass down to Clogharee Lough looked promising from aerial photographs but were<br />
too wet to be of significant interest. I did not descend all <strong>the</strong> way to <strong>the</strong> Lough and from <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r side of <strong>the</strong> valley,<br />
<strong>the</strong>re could be some old fields of interest right at <strong>the</strong> lough edge but I wouldn't be too hopeful.<br />

The higher corries above Lough Nalackan are well known as <strong>Ireland</strong>'s best area for arctic-alpine plants and lichens.<br />
However <strong>the</strong>y proved too wet to be of interest for arctic-alpine fungi which is a specialised group of species. There<br />
were patches of grassland with Hygrocybe punicea, coccinea and laeta at a height of 470m but no arctic-alpine<br />
species.<br />

The best square in <strong>the</strong> survey. Glennahoo is definitely worth more visits and <strong>the</strong> western side of <strong>the</strong> valley was not<br />
searched. The eastern side of <strong>the</strong> Lough Adoon valley looked better than <strong>the</strong> western side that was searched but <strong>the</strong> rain<br />
swollen river prevented a crossing to that side. Lough Annascaul is also worth a better visit with <strong>the</strong> eastern side of <strong>the</strong><br />
valley looking promising but that needs separate access due to problems crossing <strong>the</strong> river.<br />

This deep U shape valley is very good site for waxcaps. The valley sides are steep and well drained so <strong>the</strong> spurs are<br />
well drained and rich in waxcaps. The valley has been farmed well in <strong>the</strong> past so <strong>the</strong>re are also numerous earth bank<br />
walls which were also very good for waxcaps. Only <strong>the</strong> eastern slopes were searched so <strong>the</strong> western slopes could be<br />
searched on future visits. The first part that was of interest was from Q546089 to Q547091 which was mainly <strong>the</strong><br />
earth bank walls alongside <strong>the</strong> track. These were very rich. Once past Q547091, <strong>the</strong> valley slopes became good as<br />
well with <strong>the</strong> dry spur at Q553080 being particularly good. The waxcap interest did not diminish with height. Notable<br />
species found were Hygrocybe calyptriformis, Hygrocybe flavipes, Geoglossum atropurpureum and Trichoglossum<br />
walteri. Also of note was <strong>the</strong> large amounts of Coprinopsis semitalis.<br />

This site, like Glennahoo and Lough Annascaul both of which are in <strong>the</strong> same square , is a steeply sloped glacial<br />
corrie. Full of archaeological remains, it has been inhabited in <strong>the</strong> distant past. Only <strong>the</strong> slopes on <strong>the</strong> western side of<br />
<strong>the</strong> Lough were searched as with <strong>the</strong> previous night's rain built on <strong>the</strong> previous fortnight's rain, <strong>the</strong> river at <strong>the</strong> head of<br />
<strong>the</strong> lough was far too large and wild to cross. This was a shame as <strong>the</strong> west facing slopes possibly looked better than<br />
<strong>the</strong> east and north east facing slopes that we looked at. These slopes were a bit too moss rich and wet to be as good<br />
as Glennahoo but <strong>the</strong> west facing slopes, as <strong>the</strong>y get more sun, looked drier with a tighter sward. These would be<br />
well worth surveying. Ano<strong>the</strong>r difference with Glennahoo was <strong>the</strong> lack of earth bank walls which were so productive<br />
at that site as this corrie has not been inhabited in recent centuries.<br />

The fields below <strong>the</strong> road all look too fertilised to be of interest. Even small fields within <strong>the</strong> bog had received fertiliser<br />
and had no interest. Above <strong>the</strong> road, <strong>the</strong> open moor starts and grassland is of patchy occurrence mainly around <strong>the</strong><br />
old watchtower and along <strong>the</strong> cliff edges. The higher we ascended, <strong>the</strong> more acidic <strong>the</strong> soils were and interest soon<br />
petered out past <strong>the</strong> watchtower.<br />

Ano<strong>the</strong>r very good square with <strong>the</strong> mixture of good dunes at Inch and upland acid grassland meaning this will be better than<br />
found so far. Probably <strong>the</strong> best sites in this square were found but <strong>the</strong> Drishoge River valley at Q619078 could be visited as<br />
well. Some of <strong>the</strong> upper fields on Emlagh mountain above Inch looked possible as well.<br />

surface water but <strong>the</strong>re were slightly steeper drier sections in between where <strong>the</strong> waxcaps were. Species were<br />
fruiting as well along <strong>the</strong> road edge itself. This site will probably have some more species but feels unlikely to be a<br />

Lake but that is a long speculative walk in. The best site however is likely to be Knockbrack at Q704052 and this could be<br />
good. However <strong>the</strong>re was heavy building work going on in <strong>the</strong> area making access difficult . This would be worth visiting<br />

An enormous length of beach with a thin set of dunes behind. Only <strong>the</strong> dunes to <strong>the</strong> north and south of <strong>the</strong> car park<br />
at Q752223 as <strong>the</strong> visit was curtailed by a vicious storm. However <strong>the</strong> dunes to <strong>the</strong> north of <strong>the</strong> car park were a<br />
dense thick thatch of marram and grass through which nothing could fruit. To <strong>the</strong> south, cattle grazing had created<br />
more open areas of dune grassland which were more interesting but apart from large quantities of Hygrocybe<br />

The castle was a big hope as large landed estates like this can have excellent lawns surrounding <strong>the</strong> house.<br />
However it was very disappointing. The lawns were largely soaking wet and fungi were almost non-existant. The<br />
avenue up to <strong>the</strong> castle was equally wet so <strong>the</strong> issue is was this typical or <strong>the</strong> atypical result of a very wet year?<br />

Part of this sand dune site is in Q84 but <strong>the</strong>re were no species of interest in this part as <strong>the</strong> dunes have a gravel front<br />
and are thick dense marram grass. Farmed fields run up to behind <strong>the</strong> first row of dunes in Q84 and so have little<br />
interest. The eastern part of <strong>the</strong> dunes is more interesting with a depositional environment creating foredunes but<br />
none of <strong>the</strong> characteristic foredune species were found. The grazed fields behind <strong>the</strong> dunes are probably of most<br />
interest for waxcaps but I did not have permission to visit <strong>the</strong>se.<br />

This headland has steep slopes falling into <strong>the</strong> sea and it is <strong>the</strong> steep slopes that are of interest along with <strong>the</strong> old<br />
earth bank field boundaries and a small set of old now unenclosed fields facing <strong>the</strong> mainland. There were traces of<br />
lazy beds in <strong>the</strong>se fields. Again <strong>the</strong> feeling was that this area should have been better and would be worth revisiting.<br />

The steep fields above <strong>the</strong> road through which <strong>the</strong> Dingle Way passes had good fruiting of waxcaps with Hygrocybe<br />
punicea particularly common. Many of <strong>the</strong> fruiting bodies especially of H.punicea and H.pratensis were very small<br />
giving <strong>the</strong> impression that fruiting had been affected by <strong>the</strong> preceding cold week and was only starting again now .<br />
The area of interest was a bit restricted with higher ground becoming very acidic and wet but given <strong>the</strong> amount of<br />
H.punicea found, I would have hoped for more species and was slightly disappointed. It would be worth revisiting this<br />
site and searching <strong>the</strong> extension of this field to <strong>the</strong> north and some of <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r fields in <strong>the</strong> maze of fields above <strong>the</strong><br />
road. Some of <strong>the</strong>se fields will be of interest especially some of <strong>the</strong> upper ones but many of <strong>the</strong> lower fields looked<br />
too green and fertilised.<br />

Behind <strong>the</strong> line of dunes, <strong>the</strong> marram grass is very thick and dense and <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong>re are fertilised fields so <strong>the</strong>re is little<br />
opportunity for waxcaps. As <strong>the</strong> beach is a low energy environment and <strong>the</strong> foredunes are not being eroded, some<br />

This site was very hard going. It is very wet dominated by deep hea<strong>the</strong>r, molinia and western gorse and getting round<br />
was very difficult. Patches of grassland are rare being largely restricted to <strong>the</strong> cliff edges , earth bank walls and <strong>the</strong><br />
odd patch of grassland probably related to farming activity at some stage in <strong>the</strong> distant past. The best areas were at<br />
Bull Head itself at V497975, <strong>the</strong> very steep slopes at V491984 and V493980 and patches around <strong>the</strong> holy well at<br />
V494987. O<strong>the</strong>r spots that looked hopeful at V503978 and V504979 yielded nothing being far too wet and having<br />
possibly had fertiliser added to <strong>the</strong>m. There is no chance of <strong>the</strong> rest of <strong>the</strong> site being of waxcap interest.<br />

An enormous set of dunes with an interesting wide flat dune front before <strong>the</strong> high dunes started. Curiously none of<br />
<strong>the</strong> characteristic species of foredunes could be found in this area. The dunes behind have many excellent moss rich<br />
dune slacks rich in Salix repens. In terms of waxcaps, fruiting was sparse and earth tongues were particularly rare.<br />
Interesting species however were found associated with <strong>the</strong> Salix repens. Hebeloma colliaratum is new to <strong>Ireland</strong><br />
