Madrone antrodia typically grows on hardwoods, particularly on madrone trees, from which it gets its name. It forms tough, hoof-shaped brackets that have a reddish-brown color. These fruiting bodies release spores that help in reproduction and spread of the fungus. Madrone antrodia contributes to the ecosystem by helping decompose dead wood, thus recycling nutrients.
