Description
Phragmotrichum is a group of fungi that forms tiny, black, cushion-like structures on plant surfaces. These structures, called sporodochia, produce spores in chains. Phragmotrichum species are often found on dead or dying plant material, particularly on twigs and branches of various trees. They play a role in the decomposition process of plant matter in forest ecosystems.
