Checklist of the aphyllophoraceous fungi (Agaricomycetes) of the Brazilian Amazonia

A literature-based checklist of the aphyllophoraceous fungi reported from the Brazilian Amazonia was compiled. Two hundred and sixteen species, 90 genera, 22 families, and 9 orders (Agaricales, Auriculariales, Cantharellales, Corticiales, Gloeophyllales, Hymenochaetales, Polyporales, Russulales and Trechisporales) have been reported from the area.

Revisão do Herbário URM: novas ocorrências de Aphyllophorales para a Amazônia brasileira

One hundred and seventy-eight records of Aphyllophorales were found in URM. One hundred and sixty-nine were revised between September 2006 and May 2007, and represented eight families, 23 genera and 35 species. Polyporaceae had the highest number of species and genera. Ganoderma colossus (Fr.) C. F. Baker, G. orbiforme (Fr.) Ryvarden, Lenzites betulina (L.) Fr. and Panus tephroleucus (Mont.) T. W. May & A. E. Wood are new records to the Amazonian region.

New and interesting species of Hymenochaetaceae from the Brazilian Amazonia

Coltricia globispora sp. nov. is described as new based on specimens collected in the Parque Natural Municipal de Porto Velho, in the state of Rondônia, Brazilian Amazonia. It is characterized by small pores (7–8 per mm), monomitic hyphal system, and globose, smooth and guttulate basidiospores (5.5–6.6 (−7) μm). Phellinus griseoporus has been found for the first time in Brazil, and Cyclomyces iodinus, P. merrillii, P. membranaceus and P. umbrinellus in the Brazilian Amazonia. Coltricia cinnamomea, P. calcitratus and Phylloporia chrysites are new occurrences to the state Rondônia, while C. hamata and Phylloporia spathulata to the state of Pará. The knowledge about Hymenochaetaceae in the Brazilian Amazonia is briefly discussed, and a key to the neotropical species of Coltricia is provided.

New records of Ganodermataceae (Basidiomycota) from Brazil

Ganoderma citriporum, G. multicornum, G. zonatum and Haddowia longipes are reported as new for Brazil. Descriptions of the newly recorded species from Brazil and a key to the ten species of Ganoderma reported from the Brazilian Amazonia are provided.

Coltricia and Hymenochaete (Hymenochaetaceae) from the Amazonia and the Atlantic Forest, Brazil: One new combination and new records1

Abstract A recent survey in areas of the Amazonia and the Atlantic Forest in Brazil, and revision of the exsiccates deposited in herbaria INPA, SP and URM resulted in new records of Hymenochaetaceae: eight for the State of Rondônia, one for Acre, Amapá and Amazonas, three for Pará and two for Roraima. Coltricia barbata, C. duportii, Hymenochaete porioides and H. unicolor are new records to the Brazilian Amazonia, while C. velutina is recorded for the first time after its description. A key to the Hymenochaete species known from Brazil is provided and the new combination Hymenochaete iodina is proposed.

Ceriporia angulata and Dichomitus amazonicus are described and illustrated as new species based on specimens collected in Reserva Ducke, in the state of Amazonas. Dichomitus ecuadoriensis is reported as new to Brazil and D. cavernulosus is a new record for the states of Amazonas, Rondônia and Roraima. Ceriporia spissa is a new record for the Brazilian Amazonia. Descriptions and illustrations of the new species, and keys to species of Ceriporia and Dichomitus known for the Neotropics are provided.

Notes on Perenniporia Murrill (Basidiomycota) from the Brazilian Amazonia

Perenniporia cremeopora, P. roseoisabellina and P. ellipsospora are reported as new to Brazil, while P. parvispora and P. tephropora for the Brazilian Amazonia. Description and figures of the new occurrences in Brazil and a key to the species of Perenniporia registered for the Brazilian Amazonia are provided.
