(1822) Boletus velutinus J.J.Planer (1788) Coriolus hirsutus (Wulfen) Pat.

(1842) Polystictoides hirsutus (Wulfen) Lázaro Ibiza (1916) Polystictus cinerescens (Lév.)

Kuntze (1898) Trametes porioides Lázaro Ibiza (1917) Trametes hirsuta, commonly known as hairy bracket or hairy turkey tail,[1] is a fungal plant pathogen.

It is found all year round and persists due to its leathery nature.

[2] The cap is whitish gray, with short hairs, sometimes yellowish and tomentose at the edge, and with subtle zoning.

[3] Similar species include T. pubescens, which is unzoned, buff in colour, and without layered flesh.

[3] Lyophilized cell cultures of Trametes hirsuta yield aldehydes from alkenes, representing a biotransformation alternative to ozonolysis.
