Description
Resinicium is a fascinating group of fungi known for producing a thick, resin-like substance on their surfaces, which helps protect them from environmental stress. These fungi typically grow on decaying wood, assisting in the decomposition process and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Interestingly, the fungal body of resinicium often appears smooth and may even exhibit bright colors when young. They play a crucial role in breaking down wood and returning valuable nutrients to the soil.
