Abstract

Ceriporiopsis microporus sp. nov. and Tyromyces formosanus sp. nov., found growing saprotrophically on the decayed stems of Chamaecyparis formosensis and unidentified hardwood, respectively, in Taiwan are described and illustrated. C. microporus is distinguished by small hymenial pores and broadly ellipsoid to subglobose basidiospores. T. formosanus is characterized by large, broadly ellipsoid to subglobose basidiospores. Cultural characteristics are described for the two species.
