Taxonomy.
The fungus was first described scientifically in 1925 by American mycologist Cornelius Lott Shear as a species of "Hydnum". Kurt Hjortstam and Leif Ryvarden transferred it to the genus "Hydnophlebia" in 2009. Harold Burdsall and Karen Nakasone proposed a transfer to "Phanerochaete", a classification endorsed by MycoBank.
