Antrodiella nanospora is a species of crust fungus in the family Steccherinaceae. Found in China, it was described as new to science in 2018 by mycologist Hai-Sheng Yuan. The type collection was made in Maoershan Nature Reserve (Xing'an County, Guangxi), where it was found growing on a fallen angiosperm branch. The specific epithet nanospora refers to its small spores, which measure 2.9–3.2 by 1.8–2.1  μm. The fungus has a dimitic hyphal system, and its generative hyphae have clamp connections. It is similar in appearance to Antrodiella minutispora , but this species has a thicker and fleshier fruit body, larger pores, and does not have cystidioles in the hymenium. [1]

The type collection was made in the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden in Mengla County, where the fungus was found fruiting on a decaying angiosperm trunk. The specific epithet tropicalis refers to the tropical forest habitat.

Postia cylindrica is a species of poroid fungus in the family Fomitopsidaceae. Found in Southern China, it was described as a new species in 2017 by Hai-Sheng Yuan. The type collection was found growing on a dead pine tree in Jiangxi. The fungus is characterized macroscopically by crust-like to effused-reflexed fruit bodies with a cream to buff coloured cap surface and a reddish-brown margin that curves inward. There are gloeoplerous (oily) hyphal cells in the cuticular layer, and an absence of cystidia in the hymenium. The fungus produces smooth, cylindrical, thin-walled spores measuring 4.7–5.2 by 1.3–1.5 μm.

Dentocorticium hyphopaxillosum is a species of crust fungus in the family Polyporaceae. It is found in the Guangxi Autonomous Region of southern China, where it grows on fallen angiosperm branches. It was first described in 2014 as Dendrodontia hyphopaxillosa by mycologists Meng-Jie Li and Hai-Sheng Yuan, who thought it was related to other species of Dendrodontia based on morphological characteristics. It was transferred to the genus Dentocorticium in 2018 based on phylogenetic analysis; Dendrodontia was synonymized with Dentocorticium. Characteristics of D. hyphopaxillosum include its crust-like fruit bodies, cylindrical hyphal pegs, contorted dendrohyphidia that are frequently branched, and spores with an ellipsoid to somewhat cylindrical shape.

Perenniporia meridionalis is a poroid crust fungus in the family Polyporaceae. It was described as a new species by Cony Decock and Joost Stalpers in 2006. The holotype specimen was collected in the Province of Nuoro in Italy, where it was found growing on dead wood of Quercus ilex. Distinguishing characteristics of this fungus include its relatively large pores, the hyaline vegetative hyphae that are yellowish to slightly dextrinoid in Melzer's reagent, and large spores measuring 6.0–7.7 by 4.5–6.2 µm. P. meridionalis occurs in central and southern Europe, where it is found in warmer forested areas, usually on dead oak wood. It has also been reported to occur in North America.
