Bjerkandera fumosa

provided by wikipedia EN

Bjerkandera fumosa is a species of poroid fungus in the family Meruliaceae.

Taxonomy

It was first described to science as Boletus fumosus by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon in 1801.^[1] Petter Adolf Karsten transferred the species to the genus Bjerkandera in 1879.^[2]

Description

The form of Bjerkandera fumosa fruit bodies ranges from effused-reflexed (spread out over the substrate and turned back at the margin to form a cap) or cap-like, but attached directly to the substrate without a stipe. These caps can be solitary or closely overlapping, and are often fused with neighbouring caps. The caps typically measure 5–10 cm (2.0–3.9 in) wide by 2 cm (0.8 in) wide, and a buff-coloured upper surface with a texture ranging from finely hairy (tomentose) to smooth. The pores on the cap underside are circular to angular, numbering 2–5 per millimetre.^[3]

Bjerkandera fumosa has a monomitic hyphal system, containing only generative hyphae. The basidia are club-shaped, measuring 20–22 μm. Spores have the shape of short cylinders, and measure 5.5–7 by 2.5–3.5 μm. They are smooth, hyaline, and do not react with Melzer's reagent.^[3]

Habitat and distribution

Bjerkandera fumosa causes a white rot in various hardwood species. It has a circumboreal distribution in the Northern Hemisphere.^[3]
