Description
Cerrena are a group of fungi known for their striking, maze-like pore surfaces. These fascinating structures are often cream-colored to brown and can be found growing on decaying wood. They play a crucial role in breaking down tough plant material, helping recycle nutrients back into the ecosystem. Some species in this group have been studied for their potential in bioremediation due to their ability to degrade pollutants.
