Fuscoporia gilva (Schwein.) T. Wagner & M. Fisch., Mycologia 94(6):1013 (2002)

Remarks: This species is characterized by slightly tomentose to glabrous, smooth to striated pileus, small ellipsoid spores (2.6-3.5 x 2-2.5 µm) and by the presence of straight pointed hymenial setae (Wagner & Fischer 2002). Recent studies show close phylogenetic relationships among the species in the genus, suggesting that F. gilva s.l. may represent a species complex (Baltazar et al. 2009; Pires et al. 2015).
