Open Access Wood-rotting fungi in eastern China 6. Two new species of Antrodia (Basidiomycota) from Mt. Huangshan, Anhui Province

Two new polypores, Antrodia bambusicola and A. huangshanensis from Mt. Huangshan in Anhui Province, eastern China, are described and illustrated. Antrodia bambusicola is characterized by its annual, resupinate and thin basidiocarps, regular pores with white to cream or pale buff-yellow pore surface, ellipsoid basidiospores, branched and septate cystidioles, and its growth on fallen Bambusa spp. Antrodia huangshanensis has resupinate to rarely effused-reflexed basidiocarps with cream pore surface, larger pores, branched and flexuous hyphae at dissepimental edges, and cylindrical to allantoid basidiospores; it was found on a fallen branch of Pinus massoniana, causes a brown rot, and prefers a dry environment.
