Abstract

The taxonomy of several neotropical resupinate Perenniporia is discussed. P. xantha is described as new. It is characterized by a bright yellow resupinate basidiocarp, small pores and small ellipsoid, dextrinoid basidiospores in addition to reduced arboriform skeletal hyphae. Two new combinations are proposed, Perenniporia aurantiaca and P. chromatica. Their relation to other Perenniporia species is briefly discussed.
