Echinochaete
''Echinochaete'' is a genus of fungi in the family Polyporaceae. Circumscription (taxonomy), Circumscribed by English mycologist Derek Reid in 1963, the genus is widespread in tropical regions and contains five species. Description Basidiocarp, Fruit bodies of ''Echinochaete'' fungi are annual plant, annual. They are fan- or spoon-shaped and attached to the substrate (biology), substrate by a short stipe (mycology), stipe. The upper surface of the cap is initially velutinous–covered with short, dense, silky, upright hairs, particularly near its base. In age the surface becomes smoother. Its colour is whitish to pinkish, later becoming reddish to brown. The pores on the cap underside have an angular to hexagonal shape. ''Echinochaete'' has a dimitic hyphal system, containing both generative and skeletal hyphae. The generative hyphae are hyaline, thin-walled, and have clamp connections. The skeletal hyphae are thick-walled, with a golden to rusty colour. Hyphae in the trama (myco ...
