Here we present the first checklist of the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Kellerwald-Edersee National Park in the federal state of Hesse in Germany. After 10 years of investigation, 1107 species have been recorded. Thus far, efforts have led to the detection of 44 species of interest according to the criteria of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN), 10 species with nature value based on a European scale, and 16 nature-value species on a German scale. Sixty-four threatened species are listed on the German red list of fungi, and 147 species are listed on the regional red list of the federal state of Hesse. As part of the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Ancient Beech Forests of Germany and Primeval Beech Forests of the Carpathians, the Kellerwald-Edersee National Park represents the typical European natural beech forest on poor soil with old tree stands and relict primeval forest fragments. The presence of nature-value species in the beech (Fagus sylvatica)-dominant Kellerwald-Edersee and Hainich national parks shows the development of their forest ecosystems to near naturalness comparable to the primeval forests of the Poloniny National Park in Slovakia.
