Fomitopsidaceae
The Fomitopsidaceae are a family of fungi in the order Polyporales. Most species are parasitic on woody plants, and tend to cause brown rots. The name comes from ''Fomitopsis'' (meaning "looking like Fomes") + ''-aceae'' (a suffix used to form taxonomic family names). Genera In a proposed family-level classification of the Polyporales based on molecular phylogenetics Molecular phylogenetics () is the branch of phylogeny that analyzes genetic, hereditary molecular differences, predominantly in DNA sequences, to gain information on an organism's evolutionary relationships. From these analyses, it is possible to ..., Alfredo Justo and colleagues accept 14 genera in the Fomitopsidaceae: '' Anthoporia'', ''Antrodia'', ''Buglossoporus'', '' Cartilosoma'', ''Daedalea'', ''Fomitopsis'', ''Fragifomes'', '' Melanoporia'', ''Neolentiporus'', ''Niveoporofomes'', '' Rhodofomes'', ''Rhodofomitopsis'', ''Rubellofomes'', and ''Ungulidaedalea''.

Polyporales
The Polyporales are an order of about 1800 species of fungi in the division Basidiomycota. The order includes some (but not all) polypores as well as many corticioid fungi and a few agarics (mainly in the genus ''Lentinus''). Many species within the order are saprotrophic, most of them wood-rotters. Some genera, such as ''Ganoderma'' and ''Fomes'', contain species that attack living tissues and then continue to degrade the wood of their dead hosts. Those of economic importance include several important pathogens of trees and a few species that cause damage by rotting structural timber. Some of the Polyporales are commercially cultivated and marketed for use as food items or in traditional Chinese medicine. Taxonomy History The order was originally proposed in 1926 by Swiss mycologist Ernst Albert Gäumann to accommodate species within the phylum Basidiomycota producing basidiocarps (fruit bodies) showing a gymnocapous mode of development (forming the spore-bearing surface ext ...

Fibroporia
''Fibroporia'' is a genus of ten species of poroid crust fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. The genus contains species similar to those in genus ''Antrodia'', but they are phylogenetically distinct. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed in 1968 by Estonian mycologist Erast Parmasto with ''Fibroporia vaillantii'' (formerly ''Polyporus vaillantii'' DC.) as the type species. He defined the genus as containing species with fimbriate (hairlike) to rhizomorphic margins, and ellipsoid to slightly thick-walled spores. In 1991, Leif Ryvarden did not consider the rhizomorphs to be a characteristic worthy of creating a separate genus, and proposed ''Fibroporia'' to be synonymous with ''Antrodia''. Several molecular studies support the separation of ''Fibroporia'' as a distinct genus from ''Antrodia''. '' Pseudofibroporia'' is a phylogenetically related genus circumscribed by Chinese scientists in 2017. It is distinguished from ''Fibroporia'' by its distinct pileate fruit bodies that have ...

Auriporia
''Auriporia'' is a small genus of four species of poroid fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed by Norwegian mycologist Leif Ryvarden in 1973, with what was then known as ''Poria aurea'' as the type species. Although the genus is typically classified in the family Fomitopsidaceae, a recent (2017) multi-gene phylogenetic analysis placed ''Auriporia'' outside of Antrodia clade, and could not assign the genus to any existing family in the Polyporales. Description ''Auriporia'' are characterized by crust-like fruit bodies with a yellowish pore surface that grow on dead wood. They have a monomitic hyphal system with generative hyphae that are clamped, and thin to thick-walled. The cystidia are smooth with short side branches or protuberances, and are typically incrusted at the apex. The spores produced are hyaline (translucent), oblong, and ellipsoid An ellipsoid is a surface that may be obtained from a sphere by deforming it by means of dire ...

Parmastomyces
''Parmastomyces'' is a genus of fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Czech mycologists František Kotlaba and Zdenek Pouzar in 1964, with ''Tyromyces kravtzevianus'' Bondartzev & Parm. as the type species. ''Parmastomyces'' species cause a brown rot. The genus has a monomitic hyphal system. The genus name of ''Parmastomyces'' is in honour of Erast Parmasto (1928–2012), who was an Estonian mycologist, bio-scientist and botanist and onetime director of the Estonian Institute of Zoology and Botany. The genus was circumscribed by Paul Claude Silva in Taxon In biology, a taxon (back-formation from ''taxonomy''; plural taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit.

Climacocystis
''Climacocystis'' is a genus of poroid fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. Until recently, it was monotypic genus, containing the single widespread species '' Climacocystis borealis''. In 2014, Chinese mycologists added the newly described species '' Climacocystis montana''. The generic name combines the name ''Climacodon'' with the Ancient Greek Ancient Greek includes the forms of the Greek language used in ancient Greece and the ancient world from around 1500 BC to 300 BC. It is often roughly divided into the following periods: Mycenaean Greek (), Dark Ages (), the Archaic peri ... word ("bladder").

Osteina
''Osteina'' is a fungal genus in the family Fomitopsidaceae. It is a monotypic genus that contains the single species ''Osteina obducta''. The genus was circumscribed by mycologist Marinus Anton Donk in 1966, with ''Polyporus obductus'' as the type species. Description ''Osteina'' is characterized by fruit bodies that are sessile to stipitate, which are bone hard when dry. It has a monomitic hyphal system, containing only generative hyphae with clamps. The spores are hyaline and thin-walled, and are inamyloid and acyanophilic. ''Osteina'' causes a brown rot in gymnosperm The gymnosperms ( lit. revealed seeds) are a group of seed-producing plants that includes conifers, cycads, ''Ginkgo'', and gnetophytes, forming the clade Gymnospermae.

Neolentiporus
''Neolentiporus'' is a fungal genus in the family Fomitopsidaceae. It contains '' Neolentiporus squamosellus'' and the type species '' N. maculatissimus''. The genus was circumscribed by mycologist Mario Rajchenberg in 1995. Description ''Neolentiporus'' is characterized by medium to large fruit bodies that have stipes and a poroid hymenium on the cap underside. The caps are circular to fan-shaped with a scaly surface, and have an off-centre or lateral stipe that sometimes is reduced to a short, robust umbo. The hyphal system is dimitic with clamped, irregularly thick-walled generative hyphae that do not react with cresyl-blue stain. The skeletal hyphae are unbranched, thick-walled, and are strongly metachromatic in cresyl-blue. Spores are cylindrical, hyaline, thin-walled, inamyloid, and binucleate. ''Neolentiporus'' causes a brown rot. Molecular phylogenetic analysis shows ''Neolentiporus'' to be closely related to ''Buglossoporus ''Buglossoporus'' is a genus of fungi ...

Ischnoderma
''Ischnoderma'' is a genus of polypore fungi. Species in the genus have dark brown and tomentose fruit bodies that become darker brown to black and smooth when mature. The genus, widespread in temperate regions, contains an estimated 10 species. Taxonomy ''Ischnoderma'' was circumscribed by Finnish mycologist Petter Adolf Karsten in 1879. Although ''Ischnoderma'' has traditionally been classified in the family Fomitopsidaceae, Phylogenetic studies have demonstrated its isolated phylogenetic position in the Polyporales. Justo and colleagues suggest that ''Ischnoderma'' would be better placed as the type genus of Ischnodermataceae, a family originally proposed by Walter Jülich in 1981. The generic name ''Ischnoderma'' combines the Ancient Greek words ("dry") and ("skin"). Chemistry The type species, '' I. resinosum'', is used in mushroom dyeing to produce various shades of brown. It has been shown to efficiently decolorize several structurally different synthetic dyes: ama ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Gilbertsonia'' is characterized by a dimitic hyphal system with clamped generative and well-developed binding hyphae. The generic name honors mycologist Robert Lee Gilbertson (1925 – 2011).

Donkioporia
''Donkioporia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. The genus consists of two resupinate (crust-like) species: the type '' Donkioporia expansa'', and '' D. albidofusca'' (formerly '' Poria albidofusca''), which was transferred to the genus in 2010.
