Species Information

Summary:
Features include flat growth on wood with pore surface exposed, tough-corky consistency, cream to bright yellow pore surface with pores round to angular, 3-5 per mm, and microscopic characters including inamyloid spores and dimitic hyphal system with amyloid skeletal hyphae. Perenniporia narymica differs from other Perenniporia species in the Pacific Northwest which have a trimitic hyphal system. The online Species Fungorum, accessed September 4, 2018, gave the current name as Yuchengia narymica (Pilat) B.K. Cui, C.L. Zhao & K.T. Steffen, in Zhao, Cui & Steffen, Nordic Jl Bot. 31(3): 333 (2013), but MycoBank, accessed the same day, give the latter as a synonym of Perenniporia narymica (Pilat) Pouzar.
Microscopic:
spores 4.5-6 x 3-4 microns, elliptic to oval, inamyloid, thick-walled; cystidioles 14-20 x 5-7 microns, fusoid, not projecting; hyphal system dimitic: generative hyphae 2-4 microns wide, thin-walled, and skeletal hyphae 3-6 microns wide, thick-walled, walls faintly amyloid, binding hyphae absent, (Ginns), spores 4.5-6 x 3-4 microns, elliptic to oval, smooth, inamyloid, colorless; basidia 4-spored, 18-30 x 6-9 microns, clavate with basal clamp connection; cystidia none; fusoid cystidioles 14-20 x 5-7 microns, not projecting, with basal clamp connection; hyphal system dimitic, subicular generative hyphae 2-4 microns wide, thin-walled, with clamp connections; subicular skeletal hyphae 3-6 microns wide, thick-walled, with rare branching, weakly amyloid, nonseptate, (Gilbertson)
Notes:
Perenniporia narymica has been found in BC (Victoria area) according to Ginns(28). It is also found in AZ and the northeastern United States including MI, MN, NY, and PA, (Gilbertson(1)).
