The authors report a finding of a resupinate polyporaceous fungus new to Czechoslovakia — Auriporia aurulenta David, Tortic et Jelic — from the virgin forest „Mazácký grúnik“, Beskydy Mts., Northern Moravia. This rare fungus grows saprophytically on dead conifers, mainly Picea abies, more rarely on Abies alba, Pinus sp., and exceptionally on Populus sp. Previously known from only a few localities in Europe, Czechoslovakia is the fifth country to record it.
