Based on phylogenetic analyses phylogenies of ITS and LSU, analyses and morphological studies, Chen and Cui (2014) proposed Phlebiporia in Meruliaceae to accommodate the type species Phlebiporia bubalina. Phlebiporia characterized by an annual, resupinate basidiomata, strongly attached to the substrate, a monomitic hyphal system with simple-septate, dextrinoid and thick-walled generative hyphae, presence of thin-walled quasi-binding hyphae in the subiculum, and small, smooth, ellipsoid basidiospores, IKI–, CB– (Chen & Cui 2014). Phlebiporia is unique in its dextrinoid generative and quasi-binding hyphae (Chen & Cui 2014). No other species have been introduced to this genus, which remains monotypic.
