Trichaptum biforme

provided by wikipedia EN

Trichaptum biforme is a species of poroid fungus in the order Hymenochaetales. It is a saprobe that decomposes hardwood stumps and logs. It is inedible.[2][3] It is widely distributed and occurs on at least 65 tree hosts, but rarely on conifers. It is sometimes confused with Trichaptum abietinum, which grows almost exclusively on conifers.[3]
