... The Bayesian phylogram illustrated in the present study is consistent with the previous studies (Coelho et al. 2016;Salvador-Montoya et al. 2018;Brown et al. 2019;Lima et al. 2022). The four new Tropicoporus species from Tamil Nadu, India, fit well within the Tropicoporus clade but formed a unique, distinct lineage that was the sister clade to T. rudis (earlier treated as Xanthochrous rudis). ...
... Our Indian Tropicoporus species (Tropicoporus cleistanthicola, T. tamilnaduensis, T. indicus and T. pseudoindicus) could be easily distinguished by its pileate basidiomes and mono-dimitic hyphal system from the other Tropicoporus resupinate species (T. boehmeriae, T. hainanicus, T. minus, T. ravidus, T. stratificans, T. tenuis and T. texanus) Coelho et al. 2016;Brown et al. 2019;Wu et al. 2022). ...
The Inonotus linteus complex, predominantly reported from East Asia, Mesoamerica and Caribbean countries, was circumscribed into Tropicoporus as one of the new genera, based on morphological and phylogenetic data. The present paper describes four new species of Tropicoporus from India. Morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses, based on ITS and nLSU data, delimited the new species, which are named T. cleistanthicola , T. indicus , T. pseudoindicus and T. tamilnaduensis . The pairwise homoplasy index (PHI) test was done to confirm the distinctive nature of the new species. The traits of Indian species remain distinct from one another, except for the pileate basidiome with the mono-dimitic hyphal system, cystidioles and broadly ellipsoid basidiospores. Descriptions, illustrations, PHI test results and a phylogenetic tree to show the position of the new species are provided. In addition, an identification key to Tropicoporus in Asia and an African species is given.
... Tropicoporus linteus s. s. was delimited from specimens collected in Florida (USA) and Central America (Tian et al. 2012), and studies with T. linteus s. lat. collected in tropical Asia and tropical and subtropical America are constantly revealing new species (Tian et al. 2012;Vlasák et al. 2013;Coelho et al. 2016;Salvador-Montoya et al. 2018). No research has been done in Brazil to revise T. linteus s. lat. ...
This is the first survey of macrofungi carried out at the Poços de Caldas Plateau, Minas Gerais, Brazil, an area of high biological importance according to the Ministry of Environment. The survey of polypores was performed monthly, from June/2018 to May/2019 in ten transects (200 m² each) distributed in fragments of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, a montane seasonal semideciduous forest. Two orders, 8 families, 21 genera, and 23 species were identified, of which one is a new record for Brazil, Tropicoporus drechsleri, and 16 are new records for the state of Minas Gerais. A list of species is included in this study, as well as illustrations for the new records, a key for taxonomic identification, and remarks on the distribution of the recorded species. The study also includes annotations about substrate, taxonomy discussion, and a full description of the new record for the country.

[21,[28][29][30] Therefore, although Tropicoporus is phylogenetically close to Sanghuangporus [21] , its members are actually excluded from 'Sanghuang'. Moreover, two well-known medicinal species, Phellinus igniarius (L.) Quél. ...
‘Sanghuang’ is one of the most important groups of medicinal macrofungi and has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for the past two centuries. However, knowledge about ‘Sanghuang’ is distributed in journals of different disciplines, which has meant it is not well known. To facilitate the benefit of ‘Sanghuang’ to human health, here we summarize its current status as a group of medicinal macrofungi. ‘Sanghuang’ consists of all members of the genus Sanghuangporus, which now accommodates 14 described species distributed around the world. The powders or chips of basidiocarps as supplements are the main method of consumption. In the case that wild basidiocarps of ‘Sanghuang’ are not sufficient, cultivation is supposed to provide a solution to promote the long-term utilization of ‘Sanghuang’ basidiocarps. ‘Sanghuang’ mainly possesses antitumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, and other medicinal properties. Polysaccharides, polyphenols, pyrones, and terpenes are the main metabolites responsible for these medicinal functions. Finally, four directions are proposed to improve the sustainable utilization of ‘Sanghuang’ resources, viz. accurate identification and standard deposition, documentation of species diversity, multi-omics analyses, and a cover-all database. Hopefully, this review will draw more attention to the utilization of ‘Sanghuang’ as medicinal mushrooms in a large scale of industry.
... This genus presents effused to pileate basidiomata, hyphal system dimitic or monomitic in the context and dimitic in the tubes, setae present in the hymenium and ellipsoid to subglobose, thick-walled, yellowish basidiospores ( Wu, but these two last have dimitic hyphal system and smaller hymenial setae (12-14 × 5-7 µm in T. tropicalis and 13-25 × 5-9 um in T. boehmeriae) and basidiospores (3-4.5 × 2.5-4 µm in T. tropicalis and 2-3 × 2-2.5 um in T. boehmeriae) (Larsen and Cobb-Poulle 1990; Wu et al. 2015). Also, T. melleoporus resembles T. stratificans G.Coelho & Yurchenko for the tube layers stratified; however, this last has large pores (5-7 per mm) and a dimitic hyphal system (Coelho et al. 2016 Description: Basidiomata annual, effused, woody hard when dry, subiculum thin, homogenous or with a darker line just above the tubes, pore surface not cracked when dry, hyphal system predominately monomitic, generative hyphae simple septate, branched, thin-walled to gradually thick-walled, setae absent, cystidioles absent, basidiospores ellipsoid, broadly ellipsoid to ovoid, thick-walled, smooth, yellowish to rusty brown, positive or negative in cotton blue, negative in Melzer's reagent. ...
Fomitiporella has been phylogenetically studied in order to taxonomically treat it more naturally. In order to establish Fomitiporella s.s., studies on the holotype of F. umbrinella (the type species of Fomitiporella), and new specimens from the type locality, were carried out. Additionally, the holotype of Fuscoporella coruscans (the type species of Fuscoporella) was studied. A new morphological conceptual delimitation of Fomitiporella s.s. is presented, with a more restricted distribution pattern, and Fuscoporella is chosen as a synonym of Fomitiporella. Moreover, Rajchenbergia, gen. nov. is segregated from Fomitiporella s.l. based on morphology, phylogenetic relationships and host distribution. Taxonomic implications for the group and other related taxa are discussed. Fomitiporella americana is synonymized with F. umbrinella, F. micropora with Fomitiporella coruscans, comb. nov., and F. melleopora is now in Tropicoporus melleoporus, comb. nov., based on type and reference material studies.

In subtropical South America, only T. stratificans and T. linteus are recorded to date (Ryvarden & Meijer 2002, Drechsler-Santos et al. 2008, Rajchenberg & Robledo 2013, Campos-Santana et al. 2015, Coelho et al. 2016, Grassi et al. 2016. Tropicoporus linteus s.s. is based on southern USA and Caribbean specimens, growing on Quercus sp. and Tamarindus indica L. (1753: 34) (Tian et al. 2013). ...
... New nrITS and nrLSU sequences were joined with sequences retrieved from GenBank (NCBI) ( Table 2). The sequences used in this study represented species and genera covered by Wagner & Fischer (2002), Larsson et al. (2006), Vlasák et al. (2013), Tian et al. (2013), Wu et al. (2015), Coelho et al. (2016), Drechsler-Santos et al. (2016) and Zhou et al. (2016). Two distinct datasets were constructed: one composed only of nrITS sequences (with 33 specimens) and the other with combined nrITS + nrLSU sequences (with 37 specimens). ...
Morphological revision and phylogenetic analyses, based on nrITS and nrLSU, of specimens previously considered to be member of the “Inonotus linteus” species complex from in South America reveal a new species of Tropicoporus, here named T. drechsleri. It is a parasitic polypore restricted to the seasonally dry tropical forests of subtropical South America. Illustrations, taxonomic analyses and a discussion are presented, and a key to the Tropicoporus species in the Neotropics is provided.

Taxonomy and phylogeny of poroid Hymenochaetaceae based on the most comprehensive phylogenetic analyses are presented. A phylogeny based on a combined dataset of ITS and nLSU sequences for accepted genera of Hymenochaetaceae was analyzed and two or multigene phylogenies for most species of ten large genera including Coltricia, Fomitiporella, Fomitiporia, Fulvifomes, Fuscoporia, Inonotus, Phylloporia, Porodaedalea, Sanghuangporus and Tropicoporus, were carried out. Based on samples from 37 countries of five continents, seven new genera, Meganotus, Neophellinus, Nothonotus, Pachynotus, Perenninotus, Pseudophylloporia and Rigidonotus, are introduced, 37 new species, Coltricia tibetica, Fomitiporella crassa, F. queenslandica, Fomitiporia eucalypti, F. gatesii, F. ovoidospora, Fulvifomes azonatus, F. caligoporus, F. costaricense, F. floridanus, F. jouzaii, F. nakasoneae, F. subindicus, Fuscoporia sinuosa, F. submurina, Inonotus subradiatus, I. vietnamensis, Neomensularia castanopsidis, Pachynotus punctatus, Phellinus cuspidatus, P. subellipsoideus, Phylloporia minutissima, P. tabernaemontanae, Porodaedalea occidentiamericana, P. orientoamericana, P. qilianensis, P. schrenkianae, Pseudophylloporia australiana, Sanghuangporus australianus, S. lagerstroemiae, Tropicoporus angustisulcatus, T. hainanicus, T. lineatus, T. minus, T. ravidus, T. substratificans and T. tenuis, are described, and 108 new combinations are proposed. In addition, one illegitimate name and two invalid names are renamed, and Coltricia and Coltriciella were synonymized. The taxonomic relevance and limits of the new taxa are discussed. Photos and illustrations for 37 new species are presented, and a full description for each new species is given. Eventually, this study recognizes 672 species in 34 genera and provides a modern treatment of the poroid Hymenochaetaceae in the world. A key to the accepted poroid genera of Hymenochaetaceae is provided, and identification keys to the accepted species of 32 poroid genera worldwide are given. A synopsis description of each species is included in these keys.
During surveys in the Brazilian Amazon, Atlantic Forest and Caatinga, several species of poroid Hymenochaetaceae were collected. Of the collected specimens, ITS and LSU sequences were generated and phylogenetic analyses performed. From morphological and phylogenetic inferences, Sclerotus Xavier de Lima, gen. nov. is described based on collections of Phellinus extensus, while Inonotus parvisetus V.R.T. Oliveira, Xavier de Lima & Gibertoni, sp. nov., Tropicoporus flabellatus V.R.T. Oliveira, J.R.C. Oliveira-Filho, Xavier de Lima & Gibertoni, sp. nov and T. nullisetus Xavier de Lima, V.R.T. Oliveira & Gibertoni, sp. nov. are described as new species. Sclerotus gen. nov. is characterized by the strongly ventricose hymenial setae and the black line that is exposed as a dark crust. Inonotus parvisetum can be differentiated from similar species of the genus by the smaller tramal setae. Tropicoporus flabellatus sp. nov. produces the thinnest basidiomata in the genus, and does not develop a dark crust in the pileus surface, while in T. nullisetus sp. nov. hymenial setae is absent. The other specimens clustered within I. micantissimus (Rick) Rajchemb., I. rickii (Pat.) Reid, T. linteus (Berk. & M.A.Curtis) L.W.Zhou & Y.C.Dai, T. stratificans G.Coelho & Yurchenko and T. tropicalis (M.J.Larsen & Lombard) L.W.Zhou & Y.C.Dai. Here T. stratificans is recorded for the first time outside the type locality. Illustrations of the species and keys for Inonotus sensu lato are provided.
