Perenniporia is a

white rot
in affected wood.

Taxonomy

Perenniporia was proposed by American mycologist

perennial fruit bodies.[3] The genus name combines the Latin word perennis ("perennial") with the genus name Poria Edalat.[4]

Murrill's designated

species concept that included other species, including Perenniporia medulla-panis. Additionally, P. unita was discovered to be a nomen dubium, which also threatened the validity of the genus Perenniporia. To remedy this nomenclatural instability, Cony Decock and Joost Stalpers proposed to conserve Perenniporiella with P. medulla-panis as the type.[3]

Although

molecular phylogenetic analysis shows that it is genetically unique and worthy of recognition as a distinct genus.[5] Genera that have been segregated from Perenniporia include Perenniporiopsis[6] and Perenniporiella.[7]

Species

Perenniporia chroleuca
Perenniporia subacida
Perenniporia stipitata is named for its prominent stipe, a feature that is rare in genus Perenniporia.[8]

A 2008 estimate placed 60 species in the genus.[9] As of January 2018, Index Fungorum accepts 100 species of Perenniporia:[10]
