(2002). Since then, several new species and new records in the genus were reported, and currently, 38 species have been recorded from the country (Cui et al. 2007; Xiong et al. 2008; Dai 2010a; Dai et al. 2011; Zhao and Cui 2012; Cui and Zhao MCC950 purchase 2012). As keys of Perenniporia species present in other areas of the world are available (Hattori and Lee 1999; Decock and Ryvarden 2000; Decock and Stalpers 2006; Choeyklin et al. 2009; Decock et al. 2011), we provide a key to the species of Perenniporia s.l. occurring in China.
