Regarding the alteration of the typification of misinterpreted generic names (Sydney 1981) it is correct to use the name Antrodia P. Karst. for polypores formerly often called Coriolellus Murrill. As the species Trametes cervina (Schw.) Bres. belongs in this genus because of its dimitic hyphal system and other characters, the authors propose a new nomenclatural combination Antrodia cervina (Schw.) Koti. et Pouz. Following a revision of the type material of the polypore Ganoderma carnosum Pat. 1889 it has been ascertained that this species is conspecific with G. atkinsonii Jahn, Koti. et Pouz. 1980, so that the latter becomes its synonym.
