Description
Jaapiaceae is a small family of wood-inhabiting fungi. These organisms are known for their distinctive fruiting bodies, which are typically crust-like or resupinate, meaning they grow flat against the surface of their substrate. They play an important role in wood decomposition, particularly in temperate and boreal forests. Some species in this group have unique microscopic features that aid in their identification.
