Cryptoporus volvatus, commonly known as the veiled polypore or cryptic globe fungus,[1] is a polypore fungus that decomposes the rotting sapwood of conifers.

[2] The fungus was originally described by American mycologist Charles Horton Peck in 1875 as Polyporus volvatus.

[3] Cornelius Lott Shear transferred it to the genus Cryptoporus in 1902.

[5] The fruiting body is 2–6 across, and cream or tan in color.

[6] A hole is either torn by insects or a tear appears on the underside.
