A total of 212 species and two intraspecific taxons of basidial macromycetes were found on both protected territories, of which 40 species are indicated for the first time for the Kirov Region. The checklist contains information about frequency of finds, habitats and substrate association for each species. 25 species found in the study area are rare both in the European part of Russia and in the countries of Northern Europe.
