Phylloporia pectinata is a unique species of wood-decaying fungus that thrives on dead or dying hardwood trees. Typically found in temperate regions, this species contributes to the ecosystem by breaking down the tough lignin in wood, thereby recycling nutrients back into the soil. It forms sturdy, flat structures resembling shelves on tree trunks.
