Description
Rosellinia thrive in various environments, often forming a symbiotic relationship with plant roots, benefiting both the fungi and the plant. They are easily recognized by their dark, often velvety appearance and can be found on decaying wood or plant debris. While some species within rosellinia are known for causing plant diseases, their role in breaking down organic material is vital for nutrient recycling in forest ecosystems.
