Description
Diatrype are interesting fungi recognized for their distinctive blackish fruiting bodies, which often form elongated or disc-shaped structures on decaying wood. These fungi play a crucial role in breaking down dead plant material, contributing to nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. They typically favor hardwoods and can be found in various climatic conditions, demonstrating a surprising resilience. Some species within this group exhibit unique interaction with their environment, making them fascinating subjects for mycological studies.
