'''''Phlebia''''' is a genus of mostly crust fungi in the family Meruliaceae. The genus has a widespread distribution.<ref name="Kirk 2008"/> ''Phlebia'' species cause white rot.

==Taxonomy== ''Phlebia'' was circumscribed by Swedish mycologist Elias Fries in his 1821 work ''Systema Mycologicum''. He included four species: ''P.&nbsp;merismoides'', ''P.&nbsp;radiata'', ''P.&nbsp;contorta'', and ''P.&nbsp;vaga''.<ref name="Fries 1821"/>

Several molecular studies have demonstrated that ''Phlebia'' is a collection of sometimes unrelated taxa that share some morphological similarities.<ref name="de Koker et al. 2003"/><ref name="Kuuskeri et al. 2015"/> In a 2015 study, Floudas and Hibbett identified a "core ''Phlebia'' clade" within the larger Phlebioid clade, containing ''P.&nbsp;radiata'', ''P.&nbsp;acerina'', ''P.&nbsp;floridensis'', ''P.&nbsp;setulosa'', ''P.&nbsp;brevispora'', and ''P.&nbsp;tremellosa''.<ref name="Floudas & Hibbett 2015"/> A subsequent study suggested that ''P.&nbsp;lindtneri'', ''P.&nbsp;serialis'' and ''P.&nbsp;leptospermi'' should be added to this core group.<ref name="Kuuskeri et al. 2015"/>

''Phlebia''-like fungi with aculei (spines) are often included in the genera ''Mycoacia'' if they are monomitic, and ''Mycoaciella'' if they are dimitic or trimitic.<ref name="Zíbarová 2017"/>
