Abstract — An updated checklist of the lignocellulolytic basidiomycetes in
Santa Catarina State with 110 species distributed in 19 families and six orders
(Agaricales, Hymenochaetales, Polyporales, Russulales, Auriculariales,
Tremellales) is presented. The complete checklist is available on
http://www.mycotaxon.com/resources/weblists.html and as Electronic Guide

Introduction
Basidiomycota comprises almost 30,000 species with Basidiomycetes
representing approximately 70% (more of the 20,000 spp.) of the phylum
(Kirk et al. 2001, David 2002). The basidiomycetes include wood
decomposing organisms in most ecosystems causing white and brown rots in
tropical areas where they are very abundant (Nobles 1971, Dix & Webster
1995, Deacon 1997, Anagnost 1998, Highley & Dashek 1998, Bononi &
Grandi 1999). In Southern Brazil, the Santa Catarina State (26o–30o S lat,
48o30’–54o W long) presents two major vegetation types: the Atlantic Rain
Forest and the Atlantic Semi-deciduous Forest (Morellato & Haddad 2000).
In these ecosystems, Polypore fungi were first studied by Europeans
Mycologists already in the 19th century (Loguercio-Leite 1990). The
contributions by Brazilian researches from the Mycology Laboratory
(BOT/CCB/UFSC) in Santa Catarina State has been taking place since 1990,
with several works based on collections from the Atlantic Forest (LoguercioLeite & Wright 1991ab, Loguercio-Leite 1992, 1993, 1994; Loguercio-Leite
& Wright 1995, Gerber 1996, Gerber & Loguercio-Leite 1997, LoguercioLeite & Gerber 1997, Loguercio-Leite & Wright 1998, Loguercio-Leite et al.
1998, Gerber et al. 1999, Neves & Loguercio-Leite 1999, Gerber &
Loguercio-Leite 2000, Gonçalves 2001, Loguercio-Leite et al. 2001, 2002;
Groposo & Loguercio-Leite 2005). The purpose of this study was to estimate
the species diversity of basidiomycetes in Santa Catarina State.

Material and methods
This study is based on the collections deposited in the herbarium FLOR since
1983 (Holmgren et al. 1990). Basidiomes were studied using macroscopic
(shape, size, colors, types of hymenophore) and microscopic
(presence/absence of structures, dimensions, basidiospores) characters
(Ryvarden 1991). Measurements were made from slide preparations stained
with 1% aqueous phloxine and 5% KOH. Melzer’s reagent was used to
define wall chemical characteristics. Specimens were identified to species
using specialized references and comparing collections with BAFC, ICN and
PACA Herbaria collections. Nomenclature, taxonomy and author citation
followed Kirk et al. 2001 and databases: Centraalbureau voor
Schimmelcultures – CBS (http://www.cbs.knaw.nl/databases/) and Index
Fungorum – IFS (http://www.indexfungorum.org/Names/Names.asp). For
geographic references consult the map of Santa Catarina State in Groposo &
Loguercio-Leite (2005).
Results and discussion
As a contribution to the general checklist of the lignocellulolytic fungi
(Basidiomycetes) in Santa Catarina State a total of 110 species is presented.
The taxa are distributed in 19 families and six orders. Polyporales is the most
representative order with 74 species in 12 families, followed by
Hymenochaetales with 25 species in two families. The high diversity of
Polyporales found in the present study agrees with the results of other
inventories of the basidiomycetes on subtropical Southern Brazil (Groposo &
Loguercio-Leite 2005) and also in tropical Northeastern Brazil (Gibertoni et
al. 2004). Consequently, Polyporaceae is the most representative family with
45 species, followed by Hymenochaetaceae with 23 species. Phellinus s. l. is
the genus with the highest number of species with 16 taxa. Most of the
reported species showed a tropical distribution: 47 neotropical (almost
42.7%) and 42 pantropical species (38.2%). Only 8 and 13 species are
considered widely distributed (7.3%) and cosmopolitan (11.8%),
respectively. Up to now, these 110 species added here to the original list of
lignocellulolytic fungi (Groposo & Loguercio-Leite 2005) increases to 157
species the total diversity of these organisms in Santa Catarina State, Brazil.
The results revealed a high mycodiversity in Santa Catarina State, which
corresponds to the knowledge of the basidiomycetes in the Atlantic Forest of
Southern Brazil. From the total 157 species, 75.8% (119 species) are tropical
(pantropical and neotropical). Besides the 4 species known only from Brazil
[Amauroderma corneri Gulaid & Ryvarden, Antrodiella multipileata C.L.
Leite & J.E. Wright, Henningsia brasiliensis (Speg.) Speg., Skeletocutis
roseolus (Rick ex Theiss.) Rajchenb.] cited earlier by Groposo & Loguercio-
3
Leite (2005), we report ten additional species endemic to this country:
Phellinus bambusarum (Rick) M.J. Larsen, Ceriporiopsis cystidiata C.L.
Leite et al., Rigidoporus amazonicus Ryvarden, Diplomitoporus dilutabilis
C.L. Leite & J.E. Wright, Rubroporus carneoporis C.L. Leite et al.,
Tyromyces crassisporus C.L. Leite & J.E. Wright, Tyromyces hypocitrinus
(Berk.) Ryvarden, Wrightoporia porilacerata C.L. Leite et al., Pyrofomes
fulvoumbrinus (Bres.) A. David & Rajchenb., and Protomerulius substuppeus
(Berk. & Cooke) Ryvarden. Of these, six are known only to Santa Catarina
State. Only eight of the 157 taxa cause brown rot [Fistulina hepatica
(Schaeff.) With., Fomitopsis feei (Fr.) Kreisel, Gloeophyllum striatum (Sw.)
Murrill, Antrodia albida (Fr.) Donk, Laetiporus sulphureus (Bull.) Murrill,
Amylosporus bracei (Murrill) A. David & Rajchenb., Wrightoporia avellanea
(Bres.) Pouzar, and Wrightoporia porilacerata]. Consequently, 93-95% of
the lignocellulolytic fungi from Santa Catarina caused white rots, confirming
the trends given for tropical and subtropical areas by several authors (Nobles
1971, Gilbertson 1980, Nakasone 1996).
