• Hi, I'll review this soon. FunkMonk (talk) 16:22, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
• "his included remark "antecedentis (Polyporus nidulans) forsan varietas" Translation?

• Rather than verge into OR translation territory, I've just removed the Latin as it's not essential to the story. Sasata (talk) 05:52, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

• Why is the name Hapalopilus rutilans still used by some, and by who?

• After doing some digging, I think I've found a good source to help answer the first part of your question, and have given some examples in a footnote for the second part. Sasata (talk) 05:52, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

• What are its closest relatives?

• The only useful phylogenetic work including this species and some congeners that I found was published in 2001, and I don't think its conclusions were sufficiently relevant for this article. Sasata (talk) 05:52, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

• Is it native throughout its distribution? How did it disperse this far? Or is it just very old?

• These are good questions, to which I cannot find answers. I would guess it has a native circumboreal distribution with perhaps introductions to Australia and Oceania, but cannot find this written down anywhere. Sasata (talk) 05:52, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

• "One German family who consumed" When? Not too important, but couldn't help wondering, and you do give a date for another case.

• Added. Sasata (talk) 05:52, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

Thank-you for taking on this review FunkMonk. I hope the above replies address your comments satisfactorily. Sasata (talk) 05:52, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

• I don't have other issues, so will pass this now. FunkMonk (talk) 10:13, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
