Description
Dendrothele is a group of fungi known for growing on wood, often forming thin, crust-like layers. They thrive in damp, shady environments and play a crucial role in breaking down dead wood, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem. Some species within this group can appear slightly gelatinous when wet, adding to their unique texture. Dendrothele is fascinating for its vital part in forest ecology, aiding decomposition and contributing to soil health.
