Abstract
Sixty-three taxa of boletaceous Agaricales in the genera Phylloporus, Xerocomus (Xerocomoideae) and Boletellus, Chalciporus, Pulveroboletus and Xanthoconium (Boletoideae), are discussed and revised in the context of Central American floristics, especially Costa Rica where 30 of these have been recorded. Phylloporus guanacastensis, Chalciporus austrorubinellus, Pulveroboletus rolfeanus are described as new from Costa Rica, and Chalciporus piperola-mellatus from U. S. A. New combinations: Xerocomus orquidianus (Halling) L. D. Gómez, from Colombia; Boletellus lignatilis (B. & C. ) L. D. Gómez from Cuba; Boletellus minor (Singer) L. D. Gómez from tropical America; Boletellus japonicus (Hongo) L. D. Gómez from Japan; Chalciporus castanellus (Peck) L. D. Gómez; Chalciporus squarrosoides (Snell & Dick) L. D. Gómez and Chalciporus pseudorubinellus (Smith & Thiers) L. D. Gómez from U.S. A.; Chalciporus trinitensis var. amazonicus L. D. Gómez, Pulveroboletus atkinsonianus (Murr. ) L. D. Gómez from U. S. A. and extending south to Colombia. A sectional classification of Chalciporus is proposed, sections Chalcipori and Squarrosoidei. Species recorded from Costa Rica are: Xerocomus badius (Fr. ) Kühner ex Gilb., X. brasiliensis (Rick) Sing., X. chrysenteron (Bull. ex St Amans) Quél., X. parasiticus (Bull. : Fr. ) Quélet, X. phaeocephalus (Pat. & Bak. ) Sing., X. spadiceus (Fr. ) Quél. , X. subtomentosus (L. : Fr. ) Quél., X. parasiticus was introduced with Pinus spp. in an experimental plantation and seen and collected only once. Boletellus ananaeceps (Berk. ) Sing., B. coccineus (Fr. ) Sing., B. coccineus var. amarus Sing., B. coccineus var. crassitunicatus Sing., B. chrysenteroides (Snell) Snell, B. jalapensis (Murr. )Gilb., B. lignatilis (B. &C. ) L. D. Gómez, B. minor (Sing. ) L. D. Gómez, B. zelleri (Murr. ) Sing., Chalciporus austrorubinellus L. D. Gómez, Ch. piperatoides (Smith & Thiers) Baroni & Both, Ch. piperatus (Bull. : Fr. ) Bataille, Pulveroboletus atkinsonianus (Murr. ) L. D Gómez, P. auriporus (Peck) Sing., P. ravenellii (B. & C. ) Murr., P. retipes (B. & C.) Sing., P. rolfeanus L. D. Gómez, Pulveroboletus subacidus (Murr. )Sing., Pulveroboletus sp., Xanthoconium stramineum (Murr.) Singer. Some biogeographical notes on these basidiomycetes are included.
