Polyporaceae Fr. ex Corda

Remarks.

The family Polyporaceae was introduced by Fr. ex Corda (1839) and includes 92 genera and 636 species ( Kirk et al. 2008). According to Cannon and Kirk (2007), the species in this family are characterised by poroid, irregular or lamellate hymenophores and are saprobes. Recent phylogenetic analyses of Polyporaceae are by Binder et al. (2013) and Hyde et al. (2017). In this study, a new endophytic genus, Endopandanicola with En. thailandica as the type species was discovered. In addition to the new genus, Phanerochaete chrysosporium was also identified.
