Abstract A brief history of taxonomic research on New Zealand
polypore fungi is given, followed by a checklist of published New Zealand
records of these fungi. In total, 169 poroid taxa are accepted, of which 48
have currently misapplied or uncertain names. A further 359 names used for New
Zealand polypore fungi are cited as synonyms, and 33 names are treated as
doubtful records. Twelve species are newly recorded from New Zealand:
Anomoporia myceliosa,
Australohydnum dregeanum,
Ceriporiopsis rivulosa var.
valdiviana,
Coriolopsis
strumosa,
Junghuhnia separabilima,
Phaeolus schweinitzii
sens. str.,
Postia fragilis,
Postia tephroleuca,
Rigidoporus albostygius,
Trechispora regularis,
Tyromyces
fissilis, and
T. hypolateritius. The new combination
Postia
manuka is proposed. All names are indexed by epithet, followed by a
bibliography.
