Description
Scytinotus are a fascinating group often found growing on decaying wood in forests. They play a crucial role in ecosystems by breaking down tough, woody materials, aiding decomposition, and nutrient cycling. Some species have a unique gelatinous or rubbery texture when moist, which hardens upon drying. These special adaptations help them thrive in their specific habitats and make them an interesting subject of study in the world of fungi.
