In order to provide basic data for ecological function research of macrofungi in Zijin Mountain located in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, macrofungi species composition was investigated and ecological characteristics was analysised. A total of290species were recorded in two years, belonging to120genera,49families. They were widely distributed in mixed broadleaf forest (207species), mixed broadleaf and coniferous forest (92species), coniferous forest (46species), and bamboo forest (7species), wasteland and shrublands (5species). According to their trophic mode, they may be grouped into lignicolous (151species), entomophilous (151species), and ectomycorrhizal (49species), entomogenous species (2species). There542species had been collected by the other authors and me in Zijin Mountain. Regarding the floral composition, the species were classified into:Cosmopolitan (21.11%), North Temperate Zone (29.44%), North Temperate-Australia Zone (17.04%), Temperate-subtropical or Tropical Zone (16.85%), Eurasian Zone (6.48%), Eastern Asia-North America Zone (1.85%), Eastern Asia Zone (3.15%), and Endemic to China (4.07%).A total of51species had been obtained by moist chamber culture which was applied in studying the relationship of myxomycetes diversity and substrates, seasons and so on. The results showed that myxomycetes prefered substrates in spring to those in summuer and in autumn. They also inhabited higher bark (100cm and150cm). Number of species was listed as follows:Bark of Pinus massoniana (38species)> Bark of Pistacia chinensis (24species)> Bark of Liquidamabar formosana (22species)> Leaves (15species)> Soil (8species). Shannon-Wiener diversity index and Margalef richness index were higher in North-Slope than South-Slope.
