First record of Phlebia incarnata from the southern hemisphere

During a survey of xylophilous fungi in the municipality of São Francisco de Paula, in southern Brazil, Phlebia incarnata, a species never before recorded for South America, was found. Phlebia incarnata has a pileate basidiome with vivid pink coloration, a hymenophore with folds, a monomitic hyphal system, and cylindrical basidiospores. In this work, P. incarnata is compared with related species; a full description and illustrations are provided.
