Abstract | The basidiomycetous polypore genus Polyporus s. str can be subdivided into several infrageneric groups, one of which is 'Polyporellus'. This publication mainly discusses four widespread species within the 'Polyporellus' group: Polyporus arcularius, R brumalis, P ciliatus, and P tricholoma. As morphological characters may be ambiguous in identifying similar specimens in this group, this paper expands on an earlier study determining phylogenetic species entities in 'Polyporellus'. A total of 35 additional ITS rDNA (ITS I - 5.8S - ITS II) sequences was inserted into the phylogenetic analysis. The presence of R ciliatus or P tricholoma in temperate North America could not be confirmed by morphology or molecular data. Spore ranges for the three species P arcularius / P. brumalis / P. ciliatus were found to overlap. Our study indicates a closer relationship of the gilled Lentinus tigrinus (= Polyporus gerdai) to P tricholoma than to any other of the 'Polyporellus' species investigated. |
