Abstract

(Polypores from an Atlantic rainforest area in Southeast Brazil: resupinate species). During a survey of polypores in the Parque Estadual da Cantareira, São Paulo State, Brazil, seventeen unusual and distinctive resupinate species previously unregistered were found and identified, increasing to eighteen the number of resupinate species known for this area. Morphological comments and an identification key are provided for all the species. Rigidoporus undatus and Trechispora regularis were recorded in São Paulo State for the first time, and full descriptions with illustrations are provided.
