Phellinus
''Phellinus'' is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae. Many species cause white rot. Fruit bodies, which are found growing on wood, are resupinate, sessile, and perennial. The flesh is tough and woody or cork-like, and brown in color. Clamp connections are absent, and the skeletal hyphae are yellowish-brown. The name ''Phellinus'' means ''cork''. The species ''Phellinus ellipsoideus'' (previously ''Fomitiporia ellipsoidea'') produced the largest ever fungal fruit body. ''Phellinus'' species produce a number of natural chemicals which are of interest to science. These include the natural phenol hispidin, bio-active styrylpyrones called phelligridins, and bio-active isolates called phellinins. Uses In Australia, Indigenous Australians have used ''Phellinus'' fruit bodies medicinally. The smoke from burning fruit bodies was inhaled by those with sore throats. Scrapings from slightly charred fruit bodies were drunk with water to treat coughing, sore throats, "ba ...

Phellinus Ellipsoideus
''Phellinus ellipsoideus'' (formerly ''Fomitiporia ellipsoidea'') is a species of polypore fungus in the family Hymenochaetaceae, a specimen of which produced the largest fungal fruit body ever recorded. Found in China, the fruit bodies produced by the species are brown, woody basidiocarps that grow on dead wood, where the fungus feeds as a saprotroph. The basidiocarps are perennial, allowing them to grow very large under favourable circumstances. They are resupinate, measuring or more in length, though typically extending less than a centimetre from the surface of the wood. ''P. ellipsoideus'' produces distinct ellipsoidal spores, after which it is named, and unusual setae. These two features allow it to be readily differentiated microscopically from other, similar species. Chemical compounds isolated from the species include several steroidal compounds. These may have pharmacological applications, but further research is needed. The species was named in 2008 by Bao-Kai ...

Phellinus Igniarius
''Phellinus igniarius'' (syn. ''Phellinus trivialis''), commonly known as the willow bracket, fire sponge'','' false tinder polypore, punk ash polypore, or false tinder conk, is a fungus of the family ''Hymenochaetaceae''. Like other members of the genus of ''Phellinus'', it lives by saprotrophic nutrition, in which the lignin and cellulose of a host tree is degraded and is a cause of white rot. The fungus forms perennial fruiting bodies that rise as woody-hard, hoof or disc-shaped brackets from the bark of the infested living tree or dead log. The tree species is often willow but it may be commonly found on birch and alder and other broad leafed trees. The top is covered with a dark, often cracked crust, a stem is present only in its infancy. Unlike most fungi, it has a hard woody consistency and may persist for many years, building a new surface layer each year. Description The bracket measures in diameter, but in rare cases may be 40 cm wide. The thickness of the bracke ...

Phellinus Pomaceus
''Phellinus pomaceus'' is a plant pathogen particularly common on ''Prunus'' species. It is not aggressively pathogenic but can cause considerable decay in trees suffering from other stress factors. ''P. pomaceus'' is found in Europe as well as areas of Asia, South America and Africa. This species has historically been used for medicinal purposes and is currently being researched for its chemical and biological properties. This is a very long-lived conk, bearing as many as eighty annual growth rings. References

Fulvifomes Robiniae
''Fulvifomes robiniae'', commonly called the cracked cap polypore, is a fungus of the family of Hymenochaetaceae. The fungus primarily infests black locusts, aided by openings caused by '' Megacyllene robiniae'' infestation, but also grows on various other trees such as '' Carya'', oak, and ''Acacia''. Cracked cap polypore is sympatric In biology, two closely related species or populations are considered sympatric when they exist in the same geographic area and thus frequently encounter each other. An initially interbreeding population that splits into two or more distinct spe ... with most of its hosts. It has a brown spore print, leaving brown streaks on the tree below the fungus. The species was formerly considered part of the genus '' Phellinus'', but was moved to the genus ''Fulvifomes'' when that genus was resurrected based on morphological and molecular phylogenetic evidence.

Sporocarp (fungus)
The sporocarp (also known as fruiting body, fruit body or fruitbody) of fungi is a multicellular structure on which spore-producing structures, such as basidia or asci, are borne. The fruitbody is part of the sexual phase of a fungal life cycle, while the rest of the life cycle is characterized by vegetative mycelial growth and asexual spore production. The sporocarp of a basidiomycete is known as a ''basidiocarp'' or ''basidiome'', while the fruitbody of an ascomycete is known as an '' ascocarp''. Many shapes and morphologies are found in both basidiocarps and ascocarps; these features play an important role in the identification and taxonomy of fungi. Fruitbodies are termed ''epigeous'' if they grow on the ground, while those that grow underground are '' hypogeous''. Epigeous sporocarps that are visible to the naked eye, especially fruitbodies of a more or less agaricoid morphology, are often called mushrooms. Epigeous sporocarps have mycelia that extend underground far ...
