Skeletocutis stellae is a type of fungus found primarily on coniferous wood, contributing to wood decay. It is known for its distinctive feature: a small, resupinate form that appears like a crust over the wood. The color usually blends with the wood, helping it stay camouflaged. It plays a crucial role in nutrient recycling in forest ecosystems.
