Anomoporia dumontii |
2005 in Smoky Mt. several times collected, undetermined spec. was tentatively identified as A. d. because of hymenium made of flattened teeth, and corresponding spores. With some doubts, however, photo.

Phellinus glaucescens |
seemingly common resupinate species from Mexico and Belize that used to be named here Ph. shaferi? before, was now redetermined as Phellinus glaucescens? - see comments therein. Another, older specimen in collection was redetermined as a true Ph. shaferi.

| We isolated DNA and sequenced rDNA of all my US Phellinus (Fomitiporia) punctatus/robustus collections and discovered all above mentioned new Phellinus species after comparing the sequence with databases. There was none Phellinus punctatus, robustus or hartigii between them, so I infer that they in fact dont grow in USA. Phellinus bakeri growing on birch appeares to be different from Phellinus robustus, even if similar; probable new species similar to F. robusta and abundant on oaks in Smoky Mountains was discovered, too. The same procedure with other problematic species showed that all my Phellinus spiculosus collections were in fact Ph. laevigatus and Ph. vanini was always Phellinus johnsonianus. All USA collections of very common southern pileate or eff-reflexed species with sharp margin, silvery surface and small, hyaline, rare spores, that I have variously determined as Ph. rhabarbarinus, johnsonianus, senex, disciples etc. are the same species corresponding to Phellinus torulosus sensu Overholts with the rDNA sequence AY558649.1 in the GenBank. Nevertheless, the macro and micro characteristics and the sequence are different from european Phellinus torulosus and similar Asian Phellinus senex is probably also different. The species is presented here as Phellinus aff. torulosus. Phellinus gilvus specimens that we have collected along the east and west coasts of USA from south to north show the same rRNA sequence that differs significantly, however, from four Ph. gilvus sequences published in the GenBank that come from Asia. As Phellinus gilvus was described from around Betlehem, Pennsylvania, where most our specimens were collected, too, it is probable that specimens from Asia represent another species. This "asian" sequence we found in our Ph. gilvus specimen from China and in a seemingly very different specimens from Miami, Florida determined originally as "Phellinus rhabarbarinus" See also "Phellinus aff. gilvus".Extensive sequencing was performed also in Antrodia albida/heteromorpha complex, Oligoporus placenta, Ceriporiopsis gilvescens and in some species of Ceriporia - see comments therein |

Trametes elegans |
Based on the sequence, specimens of Trametes elegans with regular pores were once again redetermined as Trametes lactinea. Numer of collections were sequenced (rDNA) and the wide distribution of tropical Trametes lactinea in the USA was confirmed. Only one true Trametes elegans was discovered in my US - collections.

|
| Antrodiella fissiliformis |
was transferred to "Frantisekia" and split into F. fissiliformis and F. mentschulensis, according to Spirin & Zmitrovich, Czech Mycol., 59, 141, 2007.
|
|
| Oligoporus resupinatus |
was transferred to Antrodia (gossypium) even if we believe that european collections are probably another species.
|
|
| Piptoporus quercinus |
specimens 0906/15-J and 16-J from Valley Forge, PA, USA, determined originally only according to photos as Fistulina radicata were transferred to Piptoporus quercinus after examination of the samples. These are probably the first US collections of this polypore.

|
| Phellinus grenadensis, Phellinus rhabarbarinus, Phellinus spiculosus, Phellinus vanini, and Phellinus ferrugineo-velutinus |
were deleted (misdetermination).
