Description
Earliella usually grow on decaying wood and are recognized by their hard, woody texture and shelf-like appearance. They help break down tough plant material, contributing to nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Some species have distinct concentric growth rings and are often used in research related to wood decay processes. Despite their durable texture, they perform crucial ecological roles by aiding in the decomposition of organic matter.
