Revision of Hymenochaetaceae Fungi (Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota) deposited in Amazonian Herbaria

A total of 127 specimens of Hymenochaetaceae were identified in Amazonian Herbaria, with 104 from the Fungal Collection of the INPA Herbarium, 14 from the UFAC Herbarium, and nine from the UFOPA Herbarium. The reviewed exsiccates correspond to five genera and 12 species, with the first record of Coltricia perennis (L.) Murrill, C. velutina Baltazar & Gibertoni and Fomitiporia apiahyna (Speg.) Robledo, Decock & Rajchenb for the state of Amazonas, and Hymenochaete luteobadia (Fr.) Höhn. & Litsch. for the states of Acre, Amazonas and Roraima. Herbariums are a reservoir of species not yet identified and, from this study, we can more accurately understand the distribution of species compared to literature data.
