Subsequent HPLC profiling and preparative chromatography of its crude extract led to the isolation of five previously undescribed pregnenolone type triterpenes 1–5, for which we propose the trivial name aethiopinolones A–E. The chemical structures of the aethiopinolones were determined by extensive 1D- and 2D-NMR, and HRMS data analysis. The compounds exhibited moderate cytotoxic effects against various human cancer cell lines, but they were found devoid of significant nematicidal and antimicrobial activities.

This taxon is described and illustrated as Fomitiporia expansa sp. nov. It is characterized by widely effused basidiomata, extending over 1 m long, with a variable greyish to light brownish grey pore surface, and microscopically in having basidiospores averaging 6.0 × 5.5 µm. It is known for the time being from a single specimen originating in the western edge of French Guiana, in rainforest. The species belongs to the Fomitiporia langloisii lineage. This lineage contains for the time being species with resupinate basidiomata spanning over the Neotropics. Hymenochaetaceae / Neotropics / Phylogeny / Taxonomy INTRODUCTION Fomitiporia Murrill (Hymenochaetales) is typified by F. langloisii (Decock et al. 2007, Murrill 1907). The genus is above all characterized by subglobose to globose, thick-walled, hyaline, cyanophilous, and dextrinoid basidiospores, in addition to a dimitic (pseudodimitic) hyphal system. Cystidioles, hymenial and extra-hymenial setae are variably present (Campos Santana et al. 2014, Fischer 1996, Pieri & Rivoire 2000). Basidiomata are resupinate to pileate. Numerous studies have dealt with the genus in the last 20 years, evidencing a much larger than presumed taxonomic/phylogenetic diversity (e.g.

Decock Mycothèque de l’Université catholique de Louvain (BCCM/MUCL), Place Croix du Sud 3, B-1348 Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium e-mail : [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] INTRODUCTION The taxonomic knowledge of Phellinus sensu lato, and more globally of the poroid Hymenochaetaceae in tropical area or evergreen humid equatorial forest phytogeographic regions is still very fragmentary. A fortiori, we know even less about the phylogenetic relationships of other species occurring in these areas, either with allopatric populations or other related allopatric or sympatric species. The poroid Hymenochaetaceae is characterized by many species complexes, for which morphology poorly discriminate taxa. During extensive fieldwork in tropical and equatorial areas of Africa, South America and Asia, numerous collections have been made among which several collections all characterized by resupinate basidiomes, ventricose, apically curved to distinctly hamate hymenial setae, and ellipsoid, slightly thick-walled, and pale yellowish basidiospores. Morphologically, these collections could be hardly distinguished, or by some subtle characteristics, which taxonomic pertinence remain uncertain. Hooked setae are known in several Hymenochaetaceae but, above all, the combined characteristics of these specimens certainly call to mind the pattern found in Phellinus caribaeo-quercicolus (Decock et al. 2006), Phellinus setulosus (Lloyd) Imazeki (Corner 1991). The taxonomic status and phylogenetic relationships between these collections are discussed below. Materials and methods RESULTS 2. Phylogenetic relationships within the “Hooked setae clade” 1.

Designated as a biodiversity hot spot, Central Siberia is a geographically important region for understanding the spatial distribution and the evolutionary processes shaping biodiversity. There have been several studies of WDF diversity in Central Siberia, but identification of species was based on morphological characteristics, lacking detailed descriptions and molecular data.
