Resumen:
Grifo/a garga/, an edible, wood-rotting polypore previously known only from the holotype from Chile, is newly described for southern Argentina. It is restricted to Nothofagus obliqua, and it fructifies on wounds of stem and branches of living trees, and on stumps and fallen logs. The morphologies of the basidiomes and cultures are characterized and compared with those of G. sordulenta, a species restricted to N. dombeyi which fructifies on the soil, and on the butts and stumps of this species. G. gargal differs from G. sordulenta in having larger spores, and in lacking a central stem; its cultures are slower in growth and form chlamydospores but not fiber hyphae.
