Holotype.
Indonesia. Papua Barat: Saukorem, Minjanbiat, -0.5755°: 133.1447°, low-land primary forest, fallen trunk of
Spondias
(40 cm in diameter, decay stage 4/5), 3 Nov 2010, Miettinen 14381 (H, ANDA, MKW).
Etymology.
Named after mpur, the people and language spoken around the type locality.
Description.
Basidiocarp 0.1-0.2 mm thick, up to 10 cm in the widest dimension. Pore surface cream-colored, in older parts with light gray hues, pores 5-6 per mm. Sterile margin narrow (up to 0.5 mm wide). Subicular hyphae irregularly arranged, 4.8-12.7

Remarks.
Ceriporia mpurii
is very similar to
Ceriporia humilis
(see above), differing in slightly darker color of the basidiocarps and a bit rounder spores. Moreover, hyphae in older parts of tubes are densely arranged and glued together, while they are loosely arranged in
Ceriporia humilis
.
Ceriporia mpurii
is known so far from its type locality in New Guinea.
