Description
Pachykytospora is fascinating due to its wood-decaying ability, typically found on the underside of fallen trees or deadwood. Members of this group often have a corky or tough texture. They are integral to nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems by breaking down lignin and cellulose, which helps decompose wood. Though they mainly appear as crust-like growths, their role in maintaining forest health is crucial and often overlooked.
