The distribution pattern of polypores in Silent Valley National Park along different altitudinal gradient were analyzed. A total of 34 species under five families were documented by the plotbased survey conducted from the National Park. Most of the species showed a drastic reduction in density as the altitude increases. In lower altitude wet evergreen forest at Sairandhri (1000-1050 m) possessed more number of species (29 species) and found to be gradually decreasing as the altitude increases. The species richness decreased to 27 species (7 % reduction) at Poochippara (1150-1200 m) and in Walakkad (1300-1350 m) it was reduced to 25 (14 % reduction). Interestingly it was reduced to 11 species in Sispara (1950-2000 m) with 63 % reduction as comparing to that of the lower altitude. At Cheriyamkandam (2100-2150 m) and Valliyamkandam (2200-2250 m) the species richness was found to be 8 and 5 with 72 per cent and 83 per cent reduction respectively as comparing to that of Sairandhri. This monotonic decrease in species richness is also reflected in the polypore density. The density was found to be decreased from 2613 at Sairandhri (1000-1050 m) to 435 in high altitude shola forest at Valliyamkandam (2200-2250 m).
