Description
Melogramma is a group of fungi that forms small, black, cushion-like structures on the bark of deciduous trees. These structures, called stromata, contain multiple fruiting bodies. Melogramma species are typically found in temperate regions and play a role in the decomposition of dead wood. Some members of this group can cause cankers on tree branches, potentially affecting tree health.
