Description
Melogrammataceae is a family of fungi that primarily grow on the bark of trees. They form small, black, cushion-like structures called stromata on the surface of their host plants. These fungi are specialized in breaking down woody tissues and play a role in the decomposition process in forest ecosystems. Some species within this group can cause cankers on trees, affecting their health.
