description | Background and Aims: The genus Phylloporia is morphologically diverse and includes species which develop in restricted areas that are predominantly tropical and that have or do not have substrate specificity. Five species were reported for Cuba, however, due to the heterogeneity of the island’s ecosystems and the diversity of the genus, it is estimated that the number of taxa present is higher than that recorded. Therefore, the present work had as objective the taxonomic review of the genus Phylloporia in Cuba, based on the morphological analysis of specimens from Cuban herbaria.
Methods: Specimens deposited in the mycological collections of the herbaria HAJB, of the National Botanical Garden, and HAC, of the Instituto de Ecología y Sistemática de Cuba were reviewed. The specimens were studied, described and determined macroscopically and microscopically with the support of specialized literature.
Key results: Eight species of the genus Phylloporia were determined for Cuba: P. chrysites, P. fruticum, P. pectinata, and P. spathulata (previously recorded); P. verae-crucis (as a new record for the country); P. subpectinata (proposed as a new combination); P. pinarensis and P. rodriguezii (as two species new to science). Descriptions of their macroscopic and microscopic structures are given for these taxa. In addition, a distribution map of the treated species and a dichotomous key for the identification of the members of the genus in the national territory, which includes P. crystallina, that is a taxon not found in this study, are presented.
Conclusions: The geographical distribution area of the known species of the genus in Cuba is expanded and new taxa are incorporated into the country’s mycobiota. However, it is necessary to increase sampling in areas where information gaps exist or are poorly explored, as well as in sites with high plant endemism. It is also necessary to implement molecular analyses in order to evaluate the phylogenetic relationships between the treated species and others of the genus and family. |

Antecedentes y Objetivos: El género Phylloporia es morfológicamente diverso; incluye especies que se desarrollan en áreas restringidas, que son predominantemente tropicales y que poseen o no especificidad por sustratos. Para Cuba se reportan cinco especies; sin embargo, debido a la heterogeneidad de ecosistemas de la Isla y la diversidad del género, se estima que el número de taxones sea superior al registrado. Por ello, el presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo la revisión taxonómica del género Phylloporia en Cuba, a partir del análisis morfológico de ejemplares de herbarios cubanos. Métodos: Se revisaron especímenes depositados en las colecciones micológicas de los herbarios HAJB, del Jardín Botánico Nacional, y HAC, del Instituto de Ecología y Sistemática de Cuba. Los ejemplares fueron estudiados, descritos y determinados macroscópica y microscópicamente con apoyo de literatura especializada. Resultados clave: Se determinaron ocho especies del género Phylloporia para Cuba: P. chrysites, P. fruticum, P. pectinata y P. spathulata (previamente registradas); P. verae-crucis (como nuevo registro para el país); P. subpectinata (se propone como nueva combinación); P. pinarensis y P. rodriguezii (como dos especies nuevas para la ciencia). Para estos taxones se ofrecen descripciones de sus estructuras macroscópicas y microscópicas. Además, se presenta un mapa de distribución de las especies tratadas y una clave dicotómica para la identificación de los miembros del género en territorio nacional, en la que se incluye a P. crystallina, que es un taxón no encontrado en este estudio. Conclusiones: Se amplía el área de distribución geográfica de las especies conocidas del género en Cuba y se incorporan nuevos taxones a la micobiota del país. No obstante, resulta necesario incrementar los muestreos en áreas donde existen vacíos de información o estén poco exploradas, así como en sitios con alto endemismo en plantas. También se precisa implementar análisis moleculares con el objetivo de evaluar las relaciones filogenéticas entre las especies tratadas y otras del género y la familia.
