“…The best evolutionary models estimated for the alignments were T92+G+1 for the Fomitiporia dataset and K2+G+I for Fuscoporia dataset. Notes.-Fomitiporia maxonii has a perennial and resupinate basidiomata with a sterile margin, corky to woody, hymenophore with circular to ellipsoid or oblique pores, 7-9 per mm, hyphal system dimitic with hymenial setae absent, basidiospores subglobose to globose, (4.5-)5.3-6.5(-7) × (4-)4.8-6(-6.7) μm, and hyaline rhomboid crystals abundant in the hymenium as an important feature (Raymundo et al, 2012). Fomitiporia maxonii is reported from Argentina (Raymundo et al, 2012), Belize (Ryvarden, 2004;Raymundo et al, 2012), Brazil (Raymundo et al, 2012), Costa Rica (Ryvarden, 2004;Decock et al, 2007), Cuba (Decock et al, 2007;Raymundo et al, 2012), Ecuador (Ryvarden, 2004;Raymundo et al, 2012), Jamaica (Decock et al, 2007;Raymundo et al, 2012), Mexico (Raymundo et al, 2012), USA (Vlasák et al, 2011), and Venezuela (Decock et al, 2007;Raymundo et al, 2012), being in Brazil reported in the North, Northeast, Southeast and South regions, as well as for the states studied here (Flora e Funga do Brasil, 2022; Species Link, 2022).…”
