Type Studies in the Polyporaceae 24*. Species Described by Cleland, Rodway and Cheel

Abstract

Twenty-six taxa described by J.B. Cleland, L. Rodway and E. Cheel in the Polyporaceae have been reviewed and the type specimens examined. The name of 1 species is accepted, 16 taxa are treated as synonyms of existing names, 3 lacked type material or material was inadequate to support an identification, and new combinations are proposed for 6 names: Antrodiella subcrassa, Inonotus lloydii, I. setuloso-croceus, Perermiporia subaurantiaca, Phellinus subcontiguus, P. sublaevigarus. Lectotype specimens are designated for 9 species.

A key to five Australasian resupinate species of Phellinus is provided.
