A key is given to the species of the genus Albatrellus S. F. Gray (Polyporaceae) of the North Temperate Zone. A short conspectus of the treated species is appended, in which Albatrellus similis Pouz. is put into synonymy of A. subrubescens (Murrill) Pouz. Validating Latin descriptions are given for two species: Albatrellus flettii (Morse) ex Pouz. and A. sylvestris (Overh.) ex Pouz.; 5 new combinations are proposed; one new species is described: Albatrellus avellaneus Pouz.
