Skeletocutis alutacea is a species of poroid fungus in the family Polyporaceae. It was described as new to science in 1946 by American mycologist Josiah Lincoln Lowe as Poria alutacea.[5] Jean Keller transferred it to the genus Skeletocutis in 1979.[6] It is found in the United States and Canada, in Europe, and New Zealand, where it causes a white rot in various woody substrates.[7]
The basidia of S. alutacea are club-shaped, measuring 9–12 by 4–5 µm. Its spores are hyaline, smooth, cylindrical, straight to slightly curved, and measure 2.5–3.5 by 1–1.5 µm.[7]
