Abstract

A new poroid, white-rot, wood-inhabiting fungal species, Perenniporia mopanshanensis, is proposed based on morphological and molecular characters. This species from Yunnan Province, China, is characterized by resupinate basidiomes with a cream to buff to straw pore surface, dimitic hyphal system with strongly dextrinoid, unbranched, interwoven skeletal hyphae, and ellipsoid, non-truncate basidiospores (5.5–6.5 × 4–5 μm) with hyaline, distinctly thick, smooth, strongly dextrinoid walls. Phylogenetic analyses of ITS+nLSU sequences showed that P. mopanshanensis is a distinct taxon in the Perenniporia sensu stricto clade and is sister to P. bannaensis.
