Article: Cunningham, G.H. (1963). The Thelephoraceae of Australia and New Zealand. New Zealand Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Bulletin 145: 359 p. Wellington:. Description: Hymenophore annual,
coriaceous, solitary, caespitose, or imbricate. Pilei effused-reflexed with
broad resupinate bases, or almost resupinate with reflexed margins, loosely
attached, 5-10 mm radius, 5-30 mm wide, or when laterally connate to 10 x 2.5
cm; pileus surface straw colour or bay, radiately zoned with darker bands,
sulcate and striate, covered with appressed tomentum, somewhat strigose near the
base; hymenial surface at first even, wood colour or ochre, becoming
ferruginous, pallid umber or sometimes plum when old, finally deeply radiately,
sometimes.areolately creviced. Context white, then isabelline, to 0.5 mm thick,
of radiately arranged parallel hyphae with a coloured cortex beneath the
abhymenial hairs and sometimes also coloured beneath the hymenium; generative
hyphae 4-6 µm diameter, walls 0.5-1 µm thick, without clamp connections.
Conducting hyphae arising in the context and extending through the hymenial
layer, scarcely projecting, 80-200 x 4-6 µm, walls 0.5 µm thick, contents
granular and discoloured. Hymenial layer to 90 µm deep, a dense palisade of
basidia, paraphyses, and conducting hyphae. Basidia subclavate , 25-32 x 4-5.5
µm, bearing 2 spores; sterigmata slender, erect to 6 µm long. Paraphyses
subclavate, 18-26 x 4-4.5 µm. Spores cylindrical or allantoid, with rounded
ends, 6-8 x 2.5-3 µm, walls smooth, hyaline, 0.2 µm thick.
Habitat: HABITAT: Bark of dead branches
and trunks of conifers.
Distribution: DISTRIBUTION: Europe, Great. Britain, North America, South Africa,
Australia, New Zealand.
Notes: Pilei are mostly effused-reflexed with broad resupinate bases, and
sometimes arise from borer holes in the substratum. Conspicuous conducting
hyphae are present in the context and hymenial layer. They exude a reddish fluid
when the surface of living specimens is cut or bruised. Spores are narrowly
cylindrical with rounded ends, or as often allantoid. In the collection from
Dacrydium cupressinum they are somewhat larger (to 10 x 4 µm), than
those from other hosts listed, but agree with authentic European specimens in
other particulars. The species was made the type of Haematostereum
Pouzar (1959, p. 13).

Hong Kong: Fungal Diversity Press. Description: Type: Caulicolous Fungi; Description: Basidiomata annual, resupinate with reflexed margins to semipileate. Pilei effused-reflexed with broad resupinate bases, loosely attached, 10–20 mm in diameter. Pileus surface hirsute-tomentose, undulating, straw coloured, radially zoned with darker bands, margin whitish. Pore surface smooth to tuberculate, wrinkled, yellow brown to ochre, often with a violet tinge, turning blood-red when injured, margin lighter. Context reddish yellow, up to 500 μm thick. Hyphal system dimitic. Cystidia none. Basidiospores elliptic-cylindrical, 6–8 × 2–3 μm, amyloid. Distribution: Distribution: Auckland, Coromandel, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Taupo, Wellington, Nelson.; 1st Record: Birch (1937).
