Polypore diversity of Fenglin Nature Reserve, northeastern China.

摘要

Field investigations on wood-rotting fungi in Fenglin Nature Reserve, northeastern China, were made in 1999-2002, and nearly 700 specimens were collected by the authors. Based mostly on the collected material, 161 poroid wood-inhabiting species were identified, and this paper gives a checklist of our results. Substrates and collecting data of each species are supplied in the checklist. Five species, Junghuhnia semisupiniformis (Murrill) Ryvarden, Postia ceriflua (Berk. & M.A. Curtis) Julich, Postia rancida (Bres.) M.J. Larsen & Lombard, Skeletocutis papyracea A. David, and Tyromyces canadensis Overh. ex J. Lowe, are new to China. Antrodia hingganensis Y.C. Dai & Penttila and Postia amurensis Y.C. Dai & Penttila are new to science. The species diversity of polypores in Fenglin Nature Reserve is very high in regional, stand and tree species level when compared with North European data. The number of endemic species is much higher than that known from Europe. A high number of host tree species, lack of Pleistocene glaciations and favourable geography are the likely explanations to the observed high species diversity and level of endemism..
