Neotropical Daedalea (Basidiomycota, Fomitopsidaceae) revisited: Daedalea rajchenbergiana sp. nov. from Brazil

Great progress has been made in recent years on taxonomy of brown rot polypores based phylogenetical evidence, mainly Daeadalea within Fomitopsidaceae. However, the relations Fomitopsidaceae family remain unresolved. Some neotropical species Daedalea were never included molecular phylogenetic analyses, such as D. aethalodes, ryvardeniana, and south American specimens modesta. To clarify relationships those we carried out analyses five markers (ITS, nLSU, nSSU, RPB2, TEF-1). s. was recovered a strongly supported clade including most species, however, radiata grouped with Rodofomitopsis. A new rajchenbergiana sp. nov., described phylogeny, morphology, distribution evidence. The placement nov. confirmed.
