Hymenochaetaceae

The Hymenochaetaceae are a family of fungi in the order Hymenochaetales. The family contains several species that are implicated in many diseases of broad-leaved and coniferous trees, causing heart rot, canker and root diseases, and also esca disease of grapevines.

Fomitiporia is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. According to a 2008 estimate, the widely distributed genus contains 11 species, though three new species were identified in 2010 in sub-Saharan Africa using multigene molecular phylogenetic analysis, and two more were named in a 2013 article. In 2011 it was announced that a specimen of the species F. ellipsoidea was discovered with a fruit body that is largest known of any fungus. However, the species has since been moved to Phellinus.

Fuscoporia is a genus of polypore fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. It was circumscribed by American mycologist William Alphonso Murrill in 1907.

Hymenochaete is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. The genus has a widespread distribution, especially in tropical regions.

Fulvifomes is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. It was formerly considered synonymous with the genus Phellinus, but it was resurrected based on morphological and molecular phylogenetic evidence.

Phellinopsis is a genus of four species of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. It was newly circumscribed in 2010, containing P. occidentalis and the type species P. conchata. P. junipericola and P. resupinata were added in 2012, and P. asetosa in 2015.

Hydnochaete is a genus of hydnoid fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae, order Hymenochaetales. All species are wood-rotting and produce brown to gray effused fruiting bodies. The genus is very close to Hymenochaete and can be considered its hydnoid counterpart.

Dichochaete is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. The genus was circumscribed in 2000 by Estonia mycologist Erast Parmasto.

Pyrrhoderma is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae.

Cyclomyces is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. It has been suggested that the genus be merged with Hymenochaete.
