Corticioid fungi

The corticioid fungus Terana caerulea, growing on the undersurface of dead branches
The corticioid fungus Hyphodontia sambuci, common on dead elder branches
The corticioid fungus Stereum hirsutum, showing an effused fruit body with bracket-like outgrowths

The corticioid fungi are a group of fungi in the Basidiomycota typically having effused, smooth basidiocarps (fruit bodies) that are formed on the undersides of dead tree trunks or branches. They are sometimes colloquially called crust fungi or patch fungi. Originally such fungi were referred to the genus Corticium ("corticioid" means Corticium-like) and subsequently to the family Corticiaceae, but it is now known that corticioid species are not closely related. The fact that they look similar is an example of adaptive evolution. Since they are often studied as a group, it is convenient to retain the informal (non-taxonomic) name of "corticioid fungi" and this term is frequently used in research papers and other texts.
