Other projects:

Database on the distribution of basidiomyces in Russia based on literature data. Since 2015, a team of interested persons under the leadership of S. Bolshakov has been collecting and digitizing scientific publications and aggregating information on the distribution of macromycetes (Agaricomycotina and Pucciniomycotina) across Russia. Information about the species is being updated in accordance with current taxonomic data. As of the beginning of 2023, the database contains information on the distribution of 11800 scientific names of species and intraspecific taxa from almost 1900 scientific papers corresponding to more than 5200 current accepted species.
