Dendrochaete vallata G. Cunn. 1965

Notes

The type [of Dendrochaete vallata] is a typical specimen of Laetiporus percicinus. The species is widespread in the tropics, although nowhere common. It was first recorded from Australia by Reid (1963: 289) as Meripilus talpae (Cooke) Reid. The specimen at Kew that Reid examined (W. Pont no. 4334) has the same collection data as the type of D. vallata.

Typification

Holotype: PDD 19906 - Australia, northern Queensland, Stony Creek, Jan. 1954, W. Pont (no. 4334), on ground ? (probably growing from buried wood).
