ZMITROVICH I. Y. 2003: Tremelloid, aphyllophoroid and pleurotoid Basidiomycetes of Veps Plateau (Northwest Russia). - Karstenia 43: 13-36. Helsinki. ISSN 0453- 3402. The work summarizes our present-day knowledge on the aphyllophoroid, tremelloid and pleurotoid Basidiomycetes of Veps Plateau (Northwest Russia, eastern Leningrad Region). Earlier data carried out by the author as well as Finnish polyporologists are presented. Some new unpublished data are adduced, too. In total, 355 species are ci ted for the Veps Plateau; 19 of them are new to the area. Three species- Gloiothele lactescens (Berk.) Hjortstam, Hyphodontia efibulata J. Erikss. & Hjortstam, Crepido­ tus versutus (Peck) Sacc. - are new to Russia. Some rare and interesting species are described or discussed. The check-l ist contains information on localities, substrates and ecological preferences of the species; some herbarium vouchers (LE) are cited. A new combination is proposed as Antrodiella Ienis (P. Karst.) Zmitrovich comb. no a (Physisporinus Ienis P. Karst.). Key words: aphyllophoroid fungi, Basidiomycetes, Northwest Russia, pleurotoid fungi, tremelloid fungi, Veps Forest Reserve, Yeps Plateau Ivan V. Zmitrovich, V.L.
