Description

Wrightoporia is a group of wood-decaying fungi known for their distinctive spore-bearing structures. They typically form bracket-like or crust-like fruiting bodies on dead wood. Some species in this group have a unique ability to break down both cellulose and lignin components of wood, making them efficient decomposers in forest ecosystems. Their presence often indicates advanced stages of wood decay.
