Description
Jaapia is a rare group of wood-decaying fungi found primarily in Europe and North America. They form thin, inconspicuous crusts on fallen logs and branches, particularly on coniferous trees. These fungi have unique microscopic features, including distinctive spores and specialized hyphal structures. Their role in forest ecosystems, while not fully understood, likely contributes to wood decomposition processes.
