Phellopilus

Phellopilus Niemelä, T. Wagner & M. Fisch. 2001, in Dai, Y.C., Fungal diversity, 45, 131-343 (2010)

Diagnosis Basidiocarps perennial, effused-reflexed or pileate, soft corky to hard corky. Pileal surface tomentose to velutinate. Context duplex, a distinct black line present between twolayers. Hyphal system trimitic, generative hyphae hyaline and thin-walled, frequently simple septate; skeletal hyphae dichotomously branched like in the so-called skeletobinding hyphae. Setae present. Spores narrowly obclavate, hyaline, thin-walled, IKI–, slightly CB+. Phellopilus may be related to Fuscoporia because both of them have hyaline and thin-walled spores, but molecular data showed Phellopilus was in an isolated position (Wagner & Fischer 2001). Phellopilus is characterized by duplex context, trimitic hyphal structure, and narrowly obclavate, hyaline, thin-walled basidiospores (Niemelä et al. 2001).
