^aNZFS numbers as held in the New Zealand Forest Research Institute Culture Collection, Rotorua (subsidiary laboratory working numbers are indicated by an alphabetical prefix or incorporated stroke; such isolates not in brackets are no longer extant). Initials: IAH, I.A. Hood; TDR, T.D. Ramsfield; GSR, G.S. Ridley; MM, M. MacKenzie; CJS, C.J. Sandberg
^bAll isolates from New Zealand. Those of A. sp.nov. and A. species from Nothofagus forest; of A. novae-zelandiae and A. limonea from podocarp hardwood or Nothofagus forest or from Pinus plantation. Crosby et al. (1976, 1998) regions: (BP) Bay of Plenty, (TO) Taupo, (NN) Nelson, (BR) Buller, (WD) Westland
^cIdentification confirmed using ITS sequencing of representative isolates from these fruitbody collections (Ramsfield et al. 2008)
^dIdentification by fruitbody morphology alone. Table excludes six additional central North Island diploid fruitbody tissue isolates of A. limonea and four of A. novae-zelandiae
^eIdentification confirmed using DNA sequencing of representative isolates NZFS 2425 and NZFS 2426 (this paper), and NZFS 4055 (A35.4; Coetzee et al. 2001)
