Junghuhnia is a genus of crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae. It was circumscribed by Czech mycologist August Carl Joseph Corda in 1842. The generic name honours German-Dutch botanist Franz Wilhelm Junghuhn.
The Polyporaceae are a family of poroid fungi belonging to the Basidiomycota. The flesh of their fruit bodies varies from soft to very tough. Most members of this family have their hymenium in vertical pores on the underside of the caps, but some of them have gills or gill-like structures. Many species are brackets, but others have a definite stipe – for example, Polyporus badius.
The Meruliaceae are a family of fungi in the order Polyporales. According to a 2008 estimate, the family contains 47 genera and 420 species. As of April 2018, Index Fungorum accepts 645 species in the family.
The Steccherinaceae are a family of about 200 species of fungi in the order Polyporales. It includes crust-like, toothed, and poroid species that cause a white rot in dead wood.
Fomitopsis is a genus of more than 40 species of bracket fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae.
The Hymenochaetaceae are a family of fungi in the order Hymenochaetales. The family contains several species that are implicated in many diseases of broad-leaved and coniferous trees, causing heart rot, canker and root diseases, and also esca disease of grapevines.
Antrodia is a genus of fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. Antrodia species have fruit bodies that typically resupinate, with the hymenium exposed to the outside; the edges may be turned so as to form narrow brackets. Most species are found in temperate and boreal forests, and cause brown rot.
Irpex is a genus of corticioid fungi in the order Polyporales. Species produce fruit bodies that grow as a crust on the surface of dead hardwoods. The crust features an irpicioid spore-bearing surface, meaning it has irregular and flattened teeth. Irpex is distinguished from the similar genera Junghuhnia and Steccherinum by the simple septa found in the generative hyphae.
Steccherinum is a widely distributed genus of toothed crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae.
Skeletocutis is a genus of about 40 species of poroid fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution, although most species are found in the Northern Hemisphere. It causes a white rot in a diverse array of woody substrates, and the fruit bodies grow as a crust on the surface of the decaying wood. Sometimes the edges of the crust are turned outward to form rudimentary bracket-like caps.
Amaurodon is a genus of fungi in the family Thelephoraceae. Most species in the genus have resupinate and corticioid fruit bodies that grow on rotting wood. The hymenophore may have pores, teeth, or be smooth, and is typically blue to green in color.
Junghuhnia nitida is a widespread species of crust fungus in the family Steccherinaceae.
Junghuhnia africana is a species of crust fungus in the family Steccherinaceae. The type specimen was collected in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda, growing on a rotting hardwood log. Its ellipsoid spores measure 5–6 by 4–4.5 µm. The fungus was described as new to science in 2005 by mycologists Perpetua Ipulet & Leif Ryvarden.
Junghuhnia glabricystidia is a species of crust fungus in the family Steccherinaceae. The type specimen was collected in Kibale National Park, western Uganda, growing on a rotting hardwood log. The crust-like fruit bodies of the fungus measure up to 1 cm wide, 3 cm long, and 3 mm thick. The pore surface is white to cream, with round pores numbering 4 to 5 per millimetre. The tube layer, which is the same colour as the pore surface, is up to 2 mm deep, with a 1-mm thick subiculum. Its ellipsoid spores measure 4–5 by 3–3.5 µm. The fungus was described as new to science in 2005 by mycologists Perpetua Ipulet & Leif Ryvarden.
Junghuhnia japonica is a species of poroid crust fungus in the family Steccherinaceae. The type specimen was collected in Ōkuchi, Japan, growing on a rotting log of Castanopsis. The fungus is only known from the type locality. Its cylindric spores measure 4–5 by 2–2.4 µm and are smooth and hyaline. J. japonica has two types of cystidia. One type is thick walled and heavily encrusted, measuring 40–70 by 9–15 µm. The other type is tubular, smooth, and thin walled, measuring 20–35 by 4–8 µm. The latter type, which have an oily or granular appearance under the microscope, are known as gloeocystidia.
Butyrea is a genus of two species of crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae.
