Phlebia acerina belongs to the Meruliaceae family, known for its distinctive vibrant orange color and irregular, wavy margins. It primarily grows on dead hardwood, facilitating the decomposition process. Due to its resupinate form, phlebia acerina appears more like a crust than a typical mushroom, spreading thinly over the wood surface it inhabits.
