''Amauroderma'' fungi are wood-decay fungi that feed and fruit on decayed branches and trunks. The Basidiocarp, fruit bodies of ''Amauroderma'' fungi comprise a pileus (mycology), cap and a stipe (mycology), stipe, and are typically woody, leathery, or corky in texture. The basidiospore, spores produced are usually spherical or nearly so, with a characteristic double wall structure that features U-shaped thickenings.
