Taxonomy
Phanerochaetaceae was first conceived by Swedish mycologist John Eriksson in 1958 as the subfamily Phanerochaetoideae of the Corticiaceae.[2] It was later published validly by Erast Parmasto in 1986,[3] and raised to familial status by Swiss mycologist Walter Jülich in 1982. The type genus is Phanerochaete.[4]
In 2007, Karl-Henrik Larsson proposed using the name Phanerochaetaceae to refer to the clade of crust fungi clustered near Phanerochaete.[5] In 2013, a more extensive molecular analysis showed that the Phanerochaetaceae were a subclade of the large phlebioid clade, which also contains members of the families Meruliaceae and Irpicaceae.[6] The generic limits of Phanerochaete were revised in 2015,[7] and new genera were added in 2016.[8] As of April 2018[update], Index Fungorum accepts 30 genera and 367 species in the family.[9]
Description
Most Phanerochaetaceae species are crust-like. Their hyphal system is monomitic (containing only generative hyphae), and these hyphae lack clamp connections. Their spores are thin-walled, smooth, and hyaline (translucent). Cystidia are often present in the hymenium. Although rare, some species have a polyporoid form, a dimitic hyphal system, and clamp connections. Phanerochaetaceae fungi produce a white rot.[1]
