62 CRYPTOGAMIE, MYCOLOGIE • 2025 • 46 (5) Gurgel R. A. F. et al. ABSTRACT The cosmopolitan genus Pycnoporus P.Karst. groups together macrofungi that belong to the family Polyporaceae Fr. ex Corda, and these are identified by the dimidiate to flabelliform basidiome, coriaceous, reddish-orange, smooth pileus, hymenophore with 3-8 pores per 1 mm, trimitic hyphal system and smooth spores. During a search for poroid fungi of the genus Pycnoporus in Brazil, 37 specimens coming from herbaria and 66 recently collected were analyzed. The fungi were analyzed for their macroand micromorphology, and the ITS, LSU and tef regions, which were sequenced and subjected to Bayesian analyses. These analyses showed which characteristics are specific to the genus and new characteristics not previously reported were evidenced. After morphological and phylogenetic analyses, we concluded that some of these specimens were very different from the existing taxa and that they represent a new species of Pycnoporus. In addition, P. puniceus (Fr.) Ryvarden is reported for the first time from the country and P. sanguineus (L.) Murrill from the state of Roraima (Brazil). Furthermore, using the molecular data obtained in this study and ITS, LSU, tef1 and rpb2 sequences from Polyporales Gäum. from GenBank, we sought to estimate the time of divergence of Pycnoporus and the species on the order, as a starting point for understanding its biogeographic history. According to our analyses, Pycnoporus and its sister group Trametes Fr. diverged at 36 Mya. Lastly, we discuss the taxonomic relationship between these two groups. RÉSUMÉ Une nouvelle espèce et un nouveau signalement de Pycnoporus P.Karst. (Polyporaceae) de l’Amazonie brésilienne, révélés par une approche intégrative de la taxonomie classique et des études phylogénétiques. Le genre cosmopolite Pycnoporus P.Karst. regroupe des macrochampignons qui appartiennent à la famille des Polyporaceae Fr. ex Corda et qui sont identifiés par un basidiome dimidié à flabelliforme, un pileus coriace, rouge-orange et lisse, un hyménophore avec 3-8 pores par mm, un système hyphalique trimitique et des spores lisses. Lors d’une recherche de champignons poroïdes du genre Pycnoporus au Brésil, 37 spécimens provenant d’herbiers et 66 récemment collectés ont été analysés. Les champignons ont été analysés pour leur macroet micromorphologie, et séquencés dans les régions ITS, LSU et tef1, qui ont été soumises à des analyses bayésiennes. Ces analyses ont montré quelles sont les caractéristiques des espèces du genre, et de nouvelles caractéristiques qui n’avaient pas été signalées auparavant ont été mises en évidences. Après les analyses morphologiques et phylogénétiques, nous avons conclu que certains de ces spécimens étaient très différents des taxons existants et qu’ils représentaient une nouvelle espèce de Pycnoporus. En outre, P. puniceus (Fr.) Ryvarden est signalé pour la première fois dans le pays et P. sanguineus (L.) Murrill dans l’État de Roraima (Brésil). De plus, en utilisant les données moléculaires obtenues dans cette étude et les séquences ITS, LSU, tef1 et rpb2 des Polyporales Gäum. de GenBank, nous avons cherché à estimer le temps de divergence de Pycnoporus et des espèces de l’ordre, comme point de départ pour comprendre son histoire biogéographique. Selon nos analyses, Pycnoporus et son groupe frère Trametes Fr. ont divergé à 36 Mya. Enfin, nous discutons de la relation taxonomique entre ces deux groupes. INTRODUCTION Pycnoporus P.Karst. is a cosmopolitan genus of the family Polyporaceae Fr. ex Corda (Polyporales Gäum., Basidiomycota R.T. Moore), which was described by Karsten (1881) and currently comprises four species (Nobles & Frew 1962; Lesage-Meessen et al. 2011; Gurgel et al. 2023). Pycnoporus palibini P.Karst. is another reported species (Index Fungorum 2024), but it is absent from taxonomic studies in the genus, probably because its type deposited in the Finnish Museum of Natural History Herbarium-LUOMUS has been re-identified as Trametes Fr. The basidiocarp in Pycnoporus is reddish-orange colour, generally dimidiate, with circular to angular pores and trimitic hyphal system; basidiospores are cylindrical, smoothwalled, hyaline and non-amyloid (Ryvarden & Johansen 1980). The genus has a strong phylogenetic relationship with representatives of the trametoid clade (Lenzites Fr. Coriolopsis Murril, Pycnoporus and Trametes), but Pycnoporus is a monophyletic group strongly supported by phylogenetic analysis (Lesage-Meessen et al. 2011; Welti et al. 2012). In Brazil, the first collection of Pycnoporus was recorded more than 250 years ago, along with the history of mycology in the country, when Philibert Commerson collected a specimen of P. sanguineus (L.) Murrill near Rio de Janeiro (Fidalgo 1970). For the Brazilian Amazon, the earliest records date back to the 19th century, in 1851 for the present-day municipality of Barcarena (formerly Caripi) in Pará and in 1856 for the community of Panuré (Ipanuré) in Amazonas, collected by Richard Spruce and identified by M. Berkeley (Berkeley 1851, 1856). Since the first record, the species has been reported in different Brazilian phytogeographic domains (Flora do Brasil 2024), and about 1 500 specimens are registered in herbaria (SpeciesLink 2024).

63 A new species and a new record for Pycnoporus P.Karst. from the Brazilian Amazon CRYPTOGAMIE, MYCOLOGIE • 2025 • 46 (5) Pycnoporus specimens from Brazil have been studied regarding their morphological, biochemical and ecological aspects (e.g., Silva 2010; Teixeira et al. 2018; Lima 2020; Figueredo et al. 2020; Leonardo-Silva et al. 2020), but they lack more robust taxonomic analyses that seek to understand the diversity of species in the genus that exists in the country. Of the species of Pycnoporus, P. sanguineus has the widest distribution, since it exceeds transoceanic barriers and is reported for tropical and subtropical regions (Nobles & Frew 1962; Ryvarden & Johansen 1980). It was first described by Carl von Linné (1763) under Boletus sanguineus L. based on collections from Suriname. It is the only Neotropical polypore with an intense reddish-orange basidiome and a trimitic hyphal system, and is thus among the easiest to recognize (Ryvarden 2016). Although its coloration is a diagnostic character in wellpreserved specimens, the species seems to demonstrate variations (for example, size, shape, color, and texture) depending on the substrate, environmental conditions, and the age of the basidiomata (Gilbertson & Ryvarden 1987; Téllez-Téllez et al. 2016), which can make identification difficult. Several studies of macrofungi have shown that specimens with phenotypic plasticity and wide distribution, such as P. sanguineus, can mask the existing diversity within the genus, and the use of integrative taxonomy is an important tool that can be used to understand such diversity (e.g., Costa-Rezende et al. 2016; Sousa et al. 2017; Accioly et al. 2019; Cabral et al. 2019; Oliveira et al. 2022). Therefore, we performed an analysis of Pycnoporus specimens collected in Brazil, with the integration of morphological and molecular data, and propose the description of a new species for science, two new records, a comparative table with the other species of the genus, and an identification key for the country. Lastly, we present the divergence time of the genus and its species, as a starting point for understanding the current diversification that exists in the genus. MATERIAL AND METHODS Morphological analyses Morphological analyses were performed using dried specimens that were subsequently hydrated with 5% KOH. The specimens were collected between 2019 and 2022 in different Brazilian biomes, and from exsiccates of the UFRN-Fungi Herbarium, URM and INPA (Fig. 1) (acronyms according to Thiers [2024]). All specimens collected were deposited at Herbarium INPA-Fungos and this study is under SisGen AF6CC74.

64 CRYPTOGAMIE, MYCOLOGIE • 2025 • 46 (5) Gurgel R. A. F. et al. Macroscopic analyses were performed via direct observations and with the aid of stereoscopic microscopes (Nikon SMZ1500 with a Nikon DS-Ri1 camera attached and Leica M205C). Macroscopic characteristics of the types (Gurgel et al. 2023) were analyzed using the ImageJ program (Schneider et al. 2012). The measurements of the macrostructures of the specimens were performed using the stereoscopic microscope software and a caliper, and included height (Min.) -height (Max.) × width (Min.)-width (Max.) mm or diameter (Min.) - diameter (Max.). A drop of 3% KOH was poured over the basidiomata to observe any possible coloration change. All colors observed here were determined following the Küppers color guide (Küppers 2002). Slides were prepared with Melzer reagent to observe a dextrinoid (IKI+) or amyloid (IKI-) reaction, with cotton blue indicating a positive (CB+) or negative (CB-) cyanophilic reaction and, for better visualization of the hyaline structures, 1% Congo red dye was used (Ryvarden 2004). Then, the slides were observed under optical microscopes (Nikon Eclipse Ni (LM) with Nikon DS-Ri1 camera attached and Leica DM2500 LED). Whenever possible, 30 measurements were performed for basidiospores and 20 for other microstructures. All the measurements were performed in a KOH 5% solution. The statistical data calculations were performed in Excel, and included the mean length and width of basidiospores (x = mean) and the value of Qm, where Q is determined by dividing the value of length/width, and Qm is the mean of the values of Q. According to Bas (1969), the values represent the shape of the spores, where Q = 1.00-1.05 globose shape; Q = 1.05-1.15 subglobose; Q = 1.15-1.30 slightly ellipsoid; Q = 1.30-1.60 ellipsoid; Q = 1.60-2.00 elongated; Q = 2.00-3.00 cylindrical and Q>3.00 bacilliform. The other microstructures are represented as follows: height (Min.) - height (Max.) × width (Min.) - width (Max.). In addition, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed to observe the hyphae. PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSES The DNA extraction from dried material, amplification and sequencing protocols of the DNA regions were performed according to Cabral (2024). Three regions were amplified, ITS (ITS 1 + 5.8S + ITS2), LSU (partial region of the 28S) and the elongation factor 1 alpha (tef1), with the PCR conditions in accordance with Justo & Hibbett (2011) and Cabral (2024), using the primers ITS1-ITS4, LROR-LR5 and EF1-983F/ EF1-1567R. For the purification of the PCR fragments, the ExoSAP-IT™ enzyme kit was used, according to the manufacturer’s protocol. PCR fragment sequencing was performed using the Applied Biosystems Abi PRISM® BigDye™ Terminator Cycle Sequencing Ready Reaction kit v. 3.1, and precipitation was performed with a glycogen (20 mg/mL) and 3 M sodium acetate solution (NG solution). The primers used for sequencing were the same as the ones used for amplification. Consensus sequences were obtained and edited in the Geneous R9 program (Kearse et al. 2012). The consensuses obtained were subjected to a similarity search using the BLAST tool (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) in GenBank in order to verify possible contamination and whether the sequences generated corresponded to the desired regions. Sequences of ITS, LSU and tef1 related to Pycnoporus or synonyms were obtained from GenBank for phylogenetic analysis. The alignment of the sequences obtained in this study and sequences from GenBank were performed using MAFFT software, using advanced E-INS-i configurations (Katoh & Standley 2013), in order to identify homologous positions. Then, the alignment was manually edited in the AliView program (Larsson 2014). The software Mesquite v. 1.04 was used to construct the matrix of concatenated data (Maddison & Maddison 2006). Three phylogenetic analyses were performed: a first analysis with concatenated array of 5.8S, LSU, rpb2 (second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II) and tef1 to assess the position of the genus in the order Polyporales (dataset A). The rpb2 data were obtained exclusively from GenBank; a second with a concatenated array of ITS, LSU and tef1 using the species within the genus (dataset B); and a third with the alignment of ITS only with the species of Pycnoporus, which allows a greater sampling of sequences from different geographical regions (dataset C). The best molecular evolution model for each group of markers was obtained through the jModelTest program (Guindon & Gascuel 2003; Darriba et al. 2012). Subsequently, Bayesian (BY) analyses were performed using MrBayes v. 3.1.2 (Ronquist & Huelsenbeck 2003) on the Cipres Science Gateway (http://www.phylo.org/) for 10 million generations for the datasets A and C and 5 million for dataset B; in two independent runs with four simultaneous chains, and trees sampled every 1 000 generations, using a relative burn-in of 0.25. A node was considered strongly supported if it had a Bayesian Posterior Probability (PP) of ≥0.95. However, for the tree of ITS and the concatenated matrix of relationship between species in the genus, the most divergent grouping within the clade was used as the root, this being the clade of P. puniceus (Fr.) Ryvarden. For the genus relationship tree in Polyporales, Thelephora ganbajun M. Zang and Tomentella sp. were used as external groups, according to Zhao et al. (2017). In view of the absence of type material DNA sequences, we used reference sequences designated according to LesageMeessen et al. (2011), according to the proximity of the type location, these being specimen CIRM-BRFM 902 from Suriname designated as reference for P. sanguineus; MUCL 38523 from Australia for P. coccineus (Fr.) Bondartsev & Singer, and MUCL 30555 from Belgium for P. cinnabarinus (Jacq.) P.Karst. We also used BCC 26408 from Thailand as a reference for P. puniceus due to its proximity to the type locality (Malaysia). The resulting trees were edited in FigTree (http:// tree.bio.ed.ac.uk/software/figtree/). MOLECULAR DATING ANALYSIS The sequences of the concatenated genes (dataset A) were subjected to a divergence time analysis via molecular dating using a Bayesian approach as an initial step in order to
65 A new species and a new record for Pycnoporus P.Karst. from the Brazilian Amazon CRYPTOGAMIE, MYCOLOGIE • 2025 • 46 (5) understand the evolutionary history of the genus. The analysis was performed in the BEAST v. 1.8.0 program (Drummond & Rambaut 2007), and the BEAST input files were built using BEAUti. The substitution models were chosen separately for each partition based on previous inference by the jModelTest (Darriba et al. 2012), as previously described. Representatives of Meripilus giganteus (Pers.) P.Karst., Rigidoporus undatus (Pers.) Donk, and Ischnoderma resinosum (Schrad.) P.Karst. were used as an external group, according to the dataset available by Zhao et al. (2017). Two primary calibration points were included in our analyses following the information contained in Zhao et al. (2017) and He et al. (2019) since fossil record data are limited: mean root ages in Polyporales (183 Mya) and of the families (Fomitopsidaceae Jülich 88 Mya, Irpicaceae Spirin & Zmitr. 62 Mya, Meruliaceae P.Karst. 81 Mya, Meripilaceae Jülich 106 Mya, Phanerochaetaceae Jülich 62 Mya, Polyporaceae Fr. ex Corda 88 Mya). Uncorrelated lognormal relaxed-clock analysis was used, specifying ulcd.mean as the prior parameter for the gamma distribution (scale = 0.001, shape = 1), to estimate the Candelabrochaete langlosii FP110343sp Irpex lacteus DO421951208 Irpex rosettiformis Meijer3729 Thelephora ganbajun ZRL20151295 Tomentella sp.

Samples of the posterior distributions were summarized into a maximum clade credibility tree with the maximum sum of posterior probabilities listed on their internal nodes using TreeAnnotator v1.8.0 (Drummond & Rambaut 2007). The posterior convergence was evaluated using the Tracer v. 1.4 software, concatenating the runs in a final tree with the ages of the nodes estimated as the mean of the highest density value after 95% (HPD). FigTree was used to visualize the resulting tree and obtain the means. RESULTS A total of 103 exsiccates were analyzed, 37 coming from herbaria and 66 recently collected. Of these, 72 are distributed in the Brazilian Amazon, 17 in the Atlantic Forest, 10 in the Caatinga and four in the Cerrado biomes, representing three species. We obtained 104 sequences including 42 ITS, 34 from LSU and 28 from tef1 (Table 1). The final alignment of the matrix corresponding to Polyporales (dataset A) contained 2 298 positions (174 for 5.8S, 942 for LSU, 748 for rpb2 and 434 for tef1); the concatenated matrix (dataset B) contained 2 000 pb (643 for ITS, 871 for LSU, 486 for tef1) and 77 taxa; and the matrix of ITS (dataset C) contained 624 pb and 198 taxa. The evolutionary models selected for each dataset were as follows: for dataset A, HKY+I+G (5.8S) and GTR +I+G (LSU, tef1, and rpb2) were chosen; for dataset B, GTR+I+G (ITS) and GTR+G (LSU and tef1) were chosen; for dataset C, SYM (ITS) was chosen. The sequences generated in this study are listed in Table 1, and the sequences downloaded from Genbank are presented in Appendix 1. In 5.8S, LSU, rpb2 and tef1 dataset (Fig. 2), Pycnoporus forms a monophyletic group within the order Polyporales, with Trametes versicolor (L.) Lloyd as its sister group, well supported (PP = 1). Four species grouped in the Pycnoporus clade, P. puniceus, P. sp. nov. (see taxonomy), P. cinnabarinus (synonym of Trametes cinnabarina) and P. sanguineus (synonym of Trametes sanguinea). Pycnoporus amazonicus Gurgel & T.S.Cabral, sp. nov. appears as a sister group of P. puniceus, but with low support (PP = 0.85).

67 A new species and a new record for Pycnoporus P.Karst. from the Brazilian Amazon CRYPTOGAMIE, MYCOLOGIE • 2025 • 46 (5) A combined (ITS, LSU and tef1) dataset of Pycnoporus (Fig. 3), recovered eighteen major clades. Five species were identified according to the position of the reference sequences, geographical data and/or morphological data (Lesage-Meessen et al. 2011, Téllez-Téllez et al. 2016): 1) P. puniceus, containing sequences from Thailand; 2) P. cinnabarinus, with support value PP = 0.93, grouping sequences from Thailand, Belgium, China and Japan; 3) Pycnoporus amazonicus Gurgel & T.S.Cabral, sp. nov., strongly supported, containing three sequences from Brazil from different localities, and which, together with the morphological data, proved to be a new species for science; 4) P. sanguineus, with low support (PP = 0.9), including species from Brazil, Puerto Rico, Sri Lanka, French Guiana, Venezuela and Benin; and 5) P. coccineus, with maximum support and containing sequences from Australia. The other three clades were identified as Pycnoporus sp.: 6) Pycnoporus sp. 1 with low support and with localities for China, Vietnam, New Caledonia and Thailand; 7) Pycnoporus sp. 2 with maximum support, for Solomon Island and Papua New Guinea; and 8) Pycnoporus sp. 3, strongly supported (PP = 0.99), with sequences for Thailand, China and Solomon Island. In this dataset, Pycnoporus sp. appears as a sister group of the clade formed by P. sanguineus, Pycnoporus sp. 1, 2, 3, and P. coccineus, with low support (PP = 0.89). The ITS matrix dataset for Pycnoporus (Fig. 4) returned seven clades and the general topology was similar to that of the combined data (ITS, LSU and tef1), but with higher support values and larger geographical representativeness. Five species were identified: Pycnoporus sp. (PP = 1, Brazil); P. coccineus (PP = 0.99, Austria and Australia); P. sanguineus (PP = 1, Argentina, Brazil, India, Philippines, Taiwan, China, Thailand, New Caledonia, Sri Lanka, Papua table 1. — Specimens of Pycnoporus P.Karst. included in molecular analyses obtained in this study and the Genbank access number for each sequence region.

These changes can lead to misidentifications, especially with morphologically similar species, such as P. coccineus, which has an orange to reddish-orange basidiome and areas with colors similar to the pileus. Pycnoporus coccineus differs from P. sanguineus by having a basidiome with a soft aspect and 3-5 pores per mm with thick walls. Pycnoporus sanguineus has an ample worldwide distribution, as can be observed by the distribution of its sequences in the phylogenies of ITS (Fig. 4) and, for Brazil, it can be found in almost all states, of which here we report a new record for the state of Roraima. DISCUSSION Our analyses extend the sample coverage for phylogeny in terms of number of specimens, species and geographical distribution for Pycnoporus and allocate the specimens into a monophyletic clade, with Trametes versicolor as the basal group (dataset A, Fig. 2), following what was observed in Lesage-Meessen et al. (2011) and Welti et al. 2012. Although with similar morphological concepts, Pycnoporus and Trametes can be differentiated by the reddish-orange hue of the basidiomata, hyphae with orange granules and the presence of a pseustipe or stipe in Pycnoporus; whereas in Trametes, the basidiomes have brown tones, a white to cream and sometimes brown context, no hyphae with orange granules and no pseudostipe or stipe (Ryvarden 1991; Ryvarden & Gilbertson 1994; Welti et al. 2012). These colorations in Pycnoporus are the result of the synthesis of various pigments, such as cinnabarin, cinnabarinic acid and tramesanguin and pycnoporin (Téllez-Téllez et al. 2016), which are synapomorphies of the group and can be used to delimit the genus. Justo & Hibbett (2011) used a dataset of five molecular markers and placed the species of Pycnoporus and other related genera in the trametoid clade, classifying them under a single generic name, Trametes sensu stricto, reviving nomenclature combinations such as Trametes cinnabarina, Trametes sanguinea (L.: Fr) and Trametes punicea Fr. The decision to accept Pycnoporus sensu lato vs Trametes s. lat. would also have been possible provided that Cubamyces Murrill ( synonym of T. cubensis (Mont.) Sacc.) was accepted as a sister group of Pycnoporus. Recently, Cubamyces was recognized by Lücking et al. (2020) as a separate genus, grouping four species. Although Pycnoporus presents distinct morphological characteristics and is a monophyletic group, our results alone are not sufficient to make the decision as to whether or not to segregate the genus Trametes. We believe that other studies need to be carried out that focus on other supposed genera, such as Lücking et al. (2020) with Cubamyces, involving different data sources in addition to DNA and morphology, for a better understanding of the circumscription of the taxa. With the phylogenetic analyses, it was possible to recover the clades corresponding to the known species of the genus and putative species not yet known, with clades similar to those found in Lesage-Meessen et al. (2011). In both, ITS and concatenate analyses, P. puniceus and P. cinnabarinus appear to have the same phylogenetic position; however, there is uncertainty about the relationships between the other species and clades. Pycnoporus puniceus presents the most divergent sequences within the group, and encompasses Tropical specimens from Central Africa and Australia, although it was initially described for the paleotropical region (Malaysia) (Gurgel et al. 2023). In the topology of ITS (Fig. 4), it is possible to observe the formation of clades in P. puniceus from different locations, as one from Thailand (PP = 0.94) and another from Gabon, Cuba, Brazil and Australia (PP = 1); however, we cannot infer whether all refer to P. puniceus or a new species, due to the lack of additional data, even with the presence of the reference sequence of the species. This situation is repeated in other clades, which may indicate a possible wide geographical distribution for the species, except for P. coccineus, which seems to be restricted to the region of Australasia, Polynesia (type locality) and Austria. However, these clades deserve attention in future work since they may also represent different species.

79 A new species and a new record for Pycnoporus P.Karst. from the Brazilian Amazon CRYPTOGAMIE, MYCOLOGIE • 2025 • 46 (5) The sequences of the specimens belonging to Pycnoporus sp. were grouped into a well-supported and distinct clade in all the phylogenetic trees. The phylogenetic position of Pycnoporus sp. seemed uncertain in the topology of the ITS tree (Fig. 4), where there is no resolution of this relationship. However, in the concatenated tree (Fig. 3), it is a sister to the clades with Pycnoporus sanguineus, Pycnoporus sp. and Pycnoporus coccineus. Moreover, in the Polyporales tree (Fig. 2), P. amazonicus Gurgel & T.S.Cabral, sp. nov. appears as a sister group to P. puniceus, although it also does not show resolution regarding the relationships of the other species. Pycnoporus amazonicus Gurgel & T.S.Cabral, sp. nov. is morphologically distinguishable from the other species (see details in taxonomy and Table 3) and is so far composed by Brazilian specimens. Other clades were formed, which due to the absence of additional data for a decision at the species level, mainly the morphological data, we prefer to treat this clade as Pycnoporus sp. until sufficient data are obtained for its definition. Regarding these clades, by concatenating the data (dataset B, Fig. 3), Pycnoporus sp. 1 has no support value, while Pycnoporus sp. 2 and Pycnoporus sp. 3, were recovered by analyzing dataset B and C (as Pycnoporus sp. 1 and Pycnoporus sp. 2 in the ITS dataset, respectively) with highly supported in both analyses (Figs 3; 4). These specimens lack morphological data, and for a more accurate delimitation, it is necessary that the specimens in this clade must undergo integrative taxonomy, which may result in the delimitation of new species for Asia and Oceania (Paleotropics). Our divergence time results for Polyporaceae are in agreement with those of Song & Cui (2017), who concluded that the diversification of Laetiporus Murrill (Polyporales) occurred during the early Miocene (20.17 ± 0.12 Mya), and here we find, on average, 18.44 Mya for this process (Fig. 5). Similarly, the maximum crown age (14.35 Mya) for Pycnoporus is also around Miocene, but the stem age indicates a time span of 25 Myr since the arising of the genus and its diversification. This period was characterized by rapid global cooling during the Eocene-Oligocene transition, with major extinctions and species turnover in plants and animals (Coxall & Pearson 2007; Fattorini 2021). On the other hand, the diversification of Pycnoporus coincides with the Middle Miocene Thermal Maximum (16-14 Mya), where the global temperatures were warmer and Earth was highly forested, and conditions favored fauna and flora species arising (Scotese et al. 2021; Steinthorsdottir et al. 2021). Similar patterns were regionally found for fungi (Romero et al. 2021), thus the Miocene paleoclimate may also have influenced species emergences in Pycnoporus. However, more precise biogeographical inferences are only possible with additional data and analysis. At the species level, with the inclusion of other gene regions or genomic data in the analyses of phylogeny with divergence time, allied to the correct identification of the species, it will be possible to understand how some of the species in Pycnoporus are widely distributed geographically and which historical biogeographic events have influenced this current distribution. Interestingly, the specimens collected in Asia appear in all clades delimited here at the species level, which suggests probable long-distance dispersal. Additionally, the influence of human activities can also be considered when studying the current pattern of geographical distribution, such as the introduction of exotic species and deforestation. SPECIES DIVERSITY FOR PYCNOPORUS IN BRAZIL In Brazil, specimens of Pycnoporus are widely reported in GBIF (2024) and P. sanguineus was, until the present study, the only species in the country registered for the genus (Flora do Brasil 2024). Pycnoporus sanguineus has a wide geographical distribution, with records for Southwest Asia, Africa (Madagascar & Benin) and Central and South America, as observed by the specimens grouped in the phylogenetic analysis of the present study (Figs 3; 4). Among the descriptions reported for P. sanguineus, there are variations between some characters, such as the number of pores per mm and the shape and size of basidiospores. Nobles & Frew (1962) reported 4-6 pores per mm and basidiospores 4-5.2 µm × 2-2.6 µm in specimens from Louisiana, India, Kenya, Tanganyika, Holland, New Guinea, Brazil and South Africa. For the Neotropics, Ryvarden (2016) reports the same number of pores, and slightly larger cylindrical basidiospores, 5-6 µm × 2-2.5 µm. For Brazilian specimens, our description is in accordance with Gugliota & Bononi (1999) and Silva & Gibertoni (2006), who report specimens with angular pores of 5-7 per mm and cylindrical to ellipsoid basidiospores between 3.5-6 µm × 2-3.5 µm for the Atlantic Forest. Also, Neves et al. (2013) report specimens with 4-6 pores per mm, with cylindrical basidiospores of 5-6 µm × 2-2.5 µm for the Brazilian semiarid region. In contrast, Abrahão et al. (2009) described P. sanguineus for São Paulo (Atlantic Forest) and reported a greater variation of 2-8 pores per mm and cylindrical basidiospores of 3.56.2 µm × 1-2.5 µm. The disparity found in the morphological data demonstrates a wide phenotypic plasticity in the specimens of P. sanguineus, which may be related to the occupation by the species of different habitats under different edaphoclimatic conditions, and, therefore, to the adaptative ability. Here, we reaffirm the presence of P. sanguineus for Brazil through morphological similarities with type material, analysis of the protologue of the basionym and the sanctioned drawing (Gurgel et al. 2023), in addition to the use of reference sequences according to the proximity to its type location (Suriname) (Murril 1907) and new sequences generated in this study. Nonetheless, P. sanguineus has already been reported for several Brazilian states (Flora do Brasil 2024), though we recorded this species for the first time for the state of Roraima. Additionally, SpeciesLink (2024) records an exsiccate of P. puniceus for Brazil, which is reported in Soares (2017); however, no testimonial material was located according to the number and location reported. We analyzed a specimen whose sampling location was in São Gabriel da Cachoeira, Amazonas, Brazil, in which the morphological description,
80 CRYPTOGAMIE, MYCOLOGIE • 2025 • 46 (5) Gurgel R. A. F. et al. pileus and context with cinnabar tones, 1-3 pores in the hymenophore, allied to our phylogenetic analysis, and identified it as P. puniceus. Thus, since the species was previously recorded for South America (French Guiana; GBIF 2024), we report it for the first time for Brazil. The report of P. amazonicus Gurgel & T.S.Cabral, sp. nov., P. puniceus, and P. sanguineus is significant in terms of the genus’s diversity in the country compared to the total diversity of the genus previously reported. However, more studies are still needed to document the genus’s diversity in Brazil in areas where materials were not possible to obtain, such as the Pampa and Pantanal biomes. CONCLUSION The present study draws attention to a genus that have great biotechnological potential, Pycnoporus, but which are taxonomically underestimated and, although widely distributed, need conservation measures since they may reveal hidden diversity. Despite other authors opting for the synonymization with the genus Trametes, our study showed that there are morphological and phylogenetic evidence, as well as biochemical and nomenclatural characteristics that have been demonstrated in previous studies, that support Pycnoporus as a independent genus. Thus, it is advisable to perform an integrative taxonomic review of Trametes and synonymous genera to identify arguments that support the separation of the genera from Trametes, enabling the classification of the clade Pycnoporus and others. Finally, we want to point out that the inclusion of sequences of type specimens and other localities beyond the Neotropics, associated with other molecular markers, is necessary and can clarify the relationships of Pycnoporus species and, as demonstrated here, the proposition of scientific discoveries, new records and the biogeographical history of the genus.
