Description
Postia are a group of wood-decaying fungi known for their ability to break down tough plant materials, contributing significantly to nutrient cycling in forests. They typically form white to creamy-colored fruiting bodies on dead or decaying wood. Some species within this group can produce a distinct cotton-like texture or exhibit vivid colors as they age. Their role in natural decomposition helps sustain forest ecosystems by recycling essential nutrients back into the soil.
