Descriptions
Polyporus zealandicus Cooke 1879
On trunks: Coromandel (309, 310).
Pileo suberoso-coriaceo, duro, convexo, supra concentrice sulcato, subrugoso, atro-umbrino, margine obtuso, velutino, pallidiore ; corne zonato, ferrugineo; poris praelongis, stratosis, minimis, rotundatus, fusco-ferrugineis, demum caryophyllaceis.
No. 309 is evidently a resupinate form of No. 310. Three to six inches broad, when resupinate extending for nearly a foot. The hymenium is surrounded by a broad sterile, velvety margin, which is scarcely so distinct in the resupinate form. Allied to P. applanatus, Fr., but, quite distinct.
Polyporus zealandicus Cooke 1879
[Kew types, Johnston 2010] Polyporus zealandicus Cke 1879 and P. zealandicus Cke 1888 both cite specimen Kirk 309. The 1879 name also cites a specimen 310, not photographed. The two names are placed in synonymy with Phellinus zealandicus by Cunningham 1963, this in turn placed in synonymy with Phellinus wahlbergii by Buchanan & Ryvarden 2000. These latter authors, however, place P. zealandicus Cke 1888 in synonymy with Bondarzewia berkleyi (perhaps based on Kirk 310??).
