Description
Cryptosphaeria is a fungal group that forms small, dark structures on wood. These fungi are typically found on dead branches of deciduous trees, particularly poplars and willows. They play a role in decomposing wood and recycling nutrients in forest ecosystems. Some species of cryptosphaeria can cause canker diseases in living trees, affecting their health and growth.
