About

Dentocorticium irregulare is a species of crust fungus in the family Polyporaceae. It was described as new to science in 1978 by Norwegian mycologist Leif Ryvarden. It was found growing on the bark of a deciduous tree in Akagera National Park, near Lake Ihema, in Rwanda. Fruitbodies are white, crust-like, and have a cheesy consistency. The spore-bearing (hymenial) surface features shallow and irregular pores, flattened "teeth", and ridges. The spores are cylindrical, hyaline (translucent), and measure 6.5–9–3–4.5 μm.
