Hyphoderma setigerum is a wood-inhabiting fungus producing thin, sheet-like structures on dead wood. It's recognized by its cream to pale brown color, and when observed closely, it reveals tiny pores on the under-surface. The structure and coloration may change depending on environmental conditions. Hyphoderma setigerum plays a role in breaking down wood, contributing to forest ecosystems' nutrient cycles.
