The agaric flora of the Godhavn region (W Greenland 69°15′–69°30'N) was studied by the authors in 1967, 1970–72, and 1977. 1125 collections were made and 150 taxa were recognized. It was found that the fungus flora varied very much in the different seasons. The authors attempt to join their experience from studies in other arctic and alpine areas. In total, the check–list shows that there is a large degree of similarity between the agaric flora of the Godhavn area and that of the Alps and the Scandinavian mountains, while the similarity with the European lowland flora is less than earlier assumed.
