tuberosus Scutiger is a genus of fungi in the family Albatrellaceae,[1] which includes S. oregonensis, the fungus tuber.

[2][3] Species in Scutiger are terrestrial, annual, and usually have simple, bright-colored, mesoporous hymenophores.

The surface anoderm is variously decorated; the context is usually white, but rarely colored, and is fleshy to tough—rigid and fragile when dry.

The Hymenium is porous, can be white or colored, and has thin-walled tubes; The spores are smooth, or rarely echinulate and hyaline.

[4] The surface of the pileus can be uneven, squamous, or rugose as in S. oregonensis or S. decurrens; or smooth and hispid-tomentose, as in S. hispidellus (synonymous with Jahnoporus hirtus, which was named for this quality.
