Efibula is a genus of 16 species of crust fungi in the family Irpicaceae.

Contents

Taxonomy

The genus was circumscribed by Sheng-Hua Wu in 1990 with Efibula tropica as the type species. Efibula contains Phlebia -like fungi without clamp connections. [1] Although traditionally classified in the family Phanerochaetaceae, [2] recent molecular phylogenetic analysis supports the placement of Efibula in the Irpicaceae. [3]

Species

As of June 2018, Index Fungorum accepts 16 species in Efibula: [4]

The genus Roseograndinia was created in 2005 to contain the fungus once proposed for transfer into Efibula as Efibula rosea. [8]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Polyporales</span> Order of fungi

The Polyporales are an order of about 1800 species of fungi in the division Basidiomycota. The order includes some polypores as well as many corticioid fungi and a few agarics. 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.

Phlebia is a genus of mostly crust fungi in the family Meruliaceae. The genus has a widespread distribution. Phlebia species cause white rot.

<i>Mycoacia</i> Genus of fungi

Mycoacia is a genus of toothed crust fungi in the family Meruliaceae. It was circumscribed by Dutch mycologist Marinus Anton Donk in 1931.

<i>Meruliopsis</i> Genus of fungi

Meruliopsis is a genus of poroid crust fungi. The genus was circumscribed by Russian mycologist Appollinaris Semenovich Bondartsev in 1959.

Gloeoporus is a genus of crust fungi in the family Irpicaceae. The genus has a widespread distribution.

<i>Phlebiopsis</i> Genus of fungi

Phlebiopsis is a genus of poroid crust fungi in the family Phanerochaetaceae. The genus contains 11 species, which collectively have a widespread distribution. The genome sequence of the type species, Phlebiopsis gigantea, was published in 2014.

Hjortstamia is a genus of corticioid fungi in the family Phanerochaetaceae. It was circumscribed by French mycologists Jacques Boidin and Gérard Gilles in 2003.

<i>Ceriporia</i> Genus of fungi

Ceriporia is a widely distributed genus of crust fungi.

<i>Hyphoderma</i> Genus of fungi

Hyphoderma is a genus of crust fungi in the family Hyphodermataceae. It was circumscribed by German botanist Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Wallroth in 1833.

<i>Irpex</i> Genus of fungi

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.

<i>Steccherinum</i> Genus of fungi

Steccherinum is a widely distributed genus of toothed crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae.

<i>Aurantiporus</i> Genus of fungi

Aurantiporus is a genus of poroid fungi in the family Meruliaceae. Circumscribed by American mycologist William Alphonso Murrill in 1905, the genus contains five species found mostly in northern temperate regions. Molecular analysis of several Aurantiporus species suggests that the genus is not monophyletic, but some other related polypore species need to be sequenced and studied before appropriate taxonomic changes can be made. In 2018, Viktor Papp and Bálint Dima proposed a new genus Odoria to contain Aurantiporus alborubescens based on multigene phylogenetic analyses. The generic name is derived from the Latin aurantius ("orange") and the Ancient Greek πόρος (pore).

<i>Dentocorticium</i> Genus of fungi

Dentocorticium is a genus of six species of poroid fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus was revised in 2018, with several new species added and some older species transferred to other genera, based on phylogenetic analyses.

<i>Leptoporus</i> Genus of fungi

Leptoporus is a genus of polypore fungi. The type species, Leptoporus mollis, is widespread throughout north temperate areas. The generic name is derived from the Ancient Greek words λεπτός ("thin") and πόρος ("pore").
