Ceriporia
''Ceriporia'' is a widely distributed genus of crust fungi. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed by Dutch mycologist Marinus Anton Donk in 1930, with '' Ceriporia viridans'' as the type species. The generic name combines the Latin word ''cera'' ("wax") and the name ''Poria''. Molecular phylogenetic analyses have shown that ''Ceriporia'' is not monophyletic, despite an earlier study which suggested the contrary. The presence or absence of cystidia is not considered a phylogenetic character in delimiting the species of ''Ceriporia''. Although traditionally classified in the family Phanerochaetaceae, recent molecular phylogenetic analysis supports the placement of ''Ceriporia '' in the Irpicaceae. Species A 2008 estimate placed 22 species in the genus. , Index Fungorum accepts 49 species of ''Ceriporia''. Twenty species occur in China; eighteen species are found in the neotropics. *'' Ceriporia alachuana'' (Murrill) Hallenb. (1979) – Dominican Republic *'' Ceriporia alania'' ...
