Description

Pyrrhoderma is a group of wood-decaying fungi found in tropical and subtropical regions. They form large, thick, bracket-like fruiting bodies on tree trunks and fallen logs. The upper surface of pyrrhoderma is typically reddish-brown, while the underside is pale. These fungi play a crucial role in decomposing dead wood and recycling nutrients in forest ecosystems.
