Postia is a genus of brown rot fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae.

Taxonomy

Postia was circumscribed by mycologist Elias Magnus Fries in his 1874 work Hymenomycetes europaei.[2] The genus name honours Swedish naturalist Hampus von Post (1822–1911).[3]

Species

A 2008 estimate placed 30 species in the genus.[4] (As of June 2018), Index Fungorum accepts 57 species of Postia:[5]

Postia guttulata
Postia ptychogaster
Postia subcaesia


In a 2018 revision of the Postia caesia complex, Otto Miettinen and colleagues proposed four new combinations, and described ten new species:[19]

  • P. alni Niemelä & Vampola (2018) – Europe
  • P. arbuti Spirin (2018) – North America
  • P. auricoma Spirin & Niemelä (2018 – Eurasia
  • P. bifaria Spirin (2018) – East Asia
  • P. caesiosimulans (G.F.Atk.) Spirin & Miettinen (2018)Holarctic
  • P. comata Miettinen (2018) – Northeastern United States
  • P. cyanescens Miettinen (2018) – Europe
  • P. glauca Spirin & Miettinen (2018) – East Asia
  • P. gossypina (Moug. & Lév.) Spirin & Rivoire (2018) – Europe
  • P. livens Miettinen & Vlasák (2018) – North America
  • P. magna Miettinen (2018) – China; South Korea
  • P. populi Miettinen (2018) – Holarctic
  • P. simulans (P.Karst.) Spirin & Rivoire (2018) – Holarctic
  • P. subviridis (Ryvarden & Guzmán) Spirin (2018) – Europe; North America
  • P. yanae Miettinen & Kotiranta (2018) – Eastern Siberia
