Ceriporia albobrunnea Ryvarden & Iturriaga, Mycologia View in CoL 95(6): 1070 (2003).

Description: —Ryvarden & Iturriaga (2003).

Distribution:— It was known only from Venezuela, but now it is also known in Brazil.

Ecology: —The species has been reported on dead, fallen hardwood (Ryvarden & Iturriaga 2003).

Specimens examined: — BRAZIL. Amapá: Amapá National Forest , December 2009, leg. H. Sotão 2009-289 ( MG 205212) .

Taxonomic remarks: —This species is characterized by the large angular pores (2–3 per mm), pale whitish brown pore surface when fresh, and cylindrical basidiospores, 4–4.5 × 1.5 µm (Ryvarden & Iturriaga 2003). However, the Brazilian specimen has a cream to beige pore surface which becomes ochraceous upon drying. Further, it has slightly different basidiospores (4.5–5.5 × 1.25−2.5 μm) than reported in the original collection from Venezuela.
