Description
Sarcodontia is a fascinating group known for its distinctive tooth-like structures on the underside of their fruiting bodies. These fungi often grow on dead wood, contributing to the decomposition process and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Some species of sarcodontia produce a pleasant aroma, adding an interesting sensory experience to their observation. Often appearing white to pale yellow, they can brighten forested areas during their growth periods.
