Required Wood Decay Fungi; species with a porose to porose-irpiciform hymenophore (Trichaptum)

list of genera of wood decay fungi

Trichaptum abietinum. Sporocarps annual, leathery, pileate and sessile on the sides of logs (middle picture, below), effuso-reflexed on the sides of logs towards the bottom or on the ends of logs (right picture, above), and resupinate on the underside of logs (left picture below). Pileus grey, hairy, and somewhat zonde (middle picture, below); hymenophore porose and porose-irpiciform, typically with lavender to purplish colors when young (see the left illustrations, below) which can be seen on the pileal margin (see illustration to the right, below) This is one of the most common species which decay down and dead conifer wood. This species causes a laminated, white rot in which the decayed wood is typically gone entirely and in which the non-decayed wood is remains in layers and has a lacy appearance on its surface (see the two pictures to the left on the top). Thus, the rot is called a white, lacy rot.
