Gilmour (1966a) stated that the fungus is responsible for heart rot in Podocarpus totara causing a yellow pipe rot. The fungus is recorded only from Australia and New Zealand; as it is not very common the species is of minor economic importance.

Inonotus lloydii (Cleland) P.K. Buchanan & Ryvarden 1993

Type: Lignicolous Fungi; Description: Basidiomata perennial, solitary, woody or corky, attached by a lateral base. Pileus applanate, 50–110 mm wide, up to 25 mm thick. Pileus surface tomentose, becoming glabrous with age, obscurely concentrically zoned, yellowish brown, darkening with age, margin rounded, even. Pore surface even, with a sterile border 2–3 mm wide, brown; pores in several strata, 4–5 per mm. Context reddish brown, 10–20 mm thick. Hyphal system monomitic. Basidiospores globose to subglobose, 4–6 × 4–5 μm, smooth, yellow brown.
Distribution: Northland, Auckland, Bay of Plenty, Taranaki, Taupo, Wellington.; 1st Record: Cunningham (1948d: as Fomes lloydii).
Significance: The principal cause of heart rot in living Podocarpus totara which, due to the normal durability of its wood, was once a very important timber tree. The yellow-pipe rot is characterised by long, narrow, parallel, pale yellow tubular cavities. Affected wood is suitable for fencing material but useless for dressing grades. The rot is known to bushmen as ‘kaikok’, a corruption of ‘kaikaka’ which is the Māori word for totara heartwood (Williams 1971). Although common in P. totara, it is rare in Nothofagus fusca and N. truncata.; Host(s): Nothofagus fusca, N. truncata, Podocarpus hallii, P. totara.
