Notes

The species is characterised by tiny pores and a fairly soft basidiocarp. This species is widespread in the Tropics and subtropical America (southern United States, Cuba, Jamaica, Venezuela and Brazil) and Asia (West Indies, Indonesia and Philippines). This is the first record of the species for Colombia.

Diagnosis

Basidiome annual, pileate or imbricate, semicircular, widely attached, pilear surface velutinous, yellowish-brown to rusty brown, mostly azonate (Fig. 2 A). Margin acute. Context with a dark line. Poroid surface yellowish to dark cinnamon brown. Pores round to angular, 8-9 per mm. Tubes not stratified, but a bright yellow line between the tubes and the context. Hyphal structure monomitic, generative hyphae simple septate, yellowish to rusty brown. Basidia clavate, with four sterigmata. Basidiospores ellipsoid; pale yellowish brown, thick-walled, smooth, 2.9-3.2 × 1.7-1.8 µm.
