This catalogue includes 83 species, of which 32 are new to the archipelago. They belong to 37 genera. Trechispora (9 species), Hyphodontia (7 species), Peniophora (6 species), and Tubulicium (4 species) are the most significant genera. A remarkable feature is the presence in the archipelago of Peniophora bicornis. The complete catalogue is available in http://www.mycotaxon.com/resources/weblist.html.
