Dentocorticium

D. bicolor D. hyphopaxillosum D. portoricense D. sulphurellum D. taiwanianum D. ussuricum Dentocorticium is a genus of six species of poroid fungi in the family Polyporaceae.

Erast Parmasto first described Dentocorticium in 1968 as a section of Laeticorticium, a defunct genus that was classified in the Corticiaceae.

In some species the surface is poroid, daedaleoid (maze-like), and sometimes develops irregular ridges or hyphal pegs (bundles of hyphae that project from the hymenium).

There are brown skeletal hyphae present in the subiculum (a layer of loosely intertwined hyphae forming a mat covering the substrate and underlying the fruit body), spine trama, and hyphal pegs.

They do not react with Melzer's reagent, and acyanophilous (having cell walls that do not readily absorb cotton blue stain).
