Hydnophlebia omnivora is a species of crust fungus in the family Meruliaceae. It causes white rot in various woody angiosperms, being found in arid regions of the Southern United States, northern Mexico, and Uruguay.[3]

Taxonomy

The fungus was first described scientifically in 1925 by American mycologist Cornelius Lott Shear as a species of Hydnum.[4] Kurt Hjortstam and Leif Ryvarden transferred it to the genus Hydnophlebia in 2009.[5] Harold Burdsall and Karen Nakasone proposed a transfer to Phanerochaete,[6] a classification endorsed by MycoBank.[7]
