Abstract

Dichomitus is re-examined in Africa and six species are accepted. Dichomitus citricremeus and D. kirkii are described as new species. Megasporoporia is reduced to synonymy with Dichomitus, and the new combinations D. carvernulosus, D. delicatulus and D. setulosus, are proposed. An emended description of Dichomitus is provided, to accommodate species with hyphae with a dextrinoid reaction. A key to all accepted species in Dichomitus is given.
