| Summary: | Hebeloma are ectomycorrhizal fungi, common in woodlands and arctic-alpine habitats of the northern hemisphere. Until recently determination of species within this genus was hugely difficult due to the lack of clarity on species delimitation and thus names applied to collections, observations and sequences were highly unreliable. Based on recent revisions, including morphological and molecular techniques, 85 species of Hebeloma are now confirmed within Europe. In this review 296 vouchered records of Hebeloma from Norway have been analysed and a check-list has been generated for Norway, confirming the presence of 49 species of Hebeloma. This list is compared to existing lists for Norway from the Norwegian Mycological Database (NMD) and the global biodiversity information facility (GBIF). The 36 Hebeloma species not currently confirmed for Norway are discussed and acommentary provided, with regard to those which might exist within the country, and those for which Norway is beyond their current northern limits.
