For the first time, bracket fungi (Basidiomycetes, Aphyllophorales) are recorded from Miocene deposits in the province of Noord Brabant (The Netherlands). The extremely good preservation allows the specimens to be tentatively referred to the well-known extant European genus Ganoderma Karsten, 1881, thus extending the range of this genus down into the Miocene. The present record appears to be the first documentation of fossil basidiocarps of the polyporoid Ganodermataceae from Europe. The described material reveals two types of fossilisation (carbonization and partial petrification).
