Trametes pubescens
White rot fungus
Description
The cap is up to 6 cm wide, white with a yellow edge when young, later hairless, cream-coloured, yellow- brown or ochre, occasionally grey-striped. The pores are cream-coloured to light straw-yellow. The fruiting bodies are up to 0.5 cm thick, frequently found in larger quantities in a roof-like formation one above the other. Unlike Trametes hirsuta, its cap is not bristle-like and it has a single-layer flesh. It causes white rot on dead trees.
Symptom
Presence of felted white fruiting bodies with a yellow margin, later glabrous, creamy, tan or ocher.
