October 25, 2008
Ganoderma is a genus of polypores which grow on wood. They can be differentiated from other polypores because they have a double walled basidiospore. The genus is divided into two sections - Section Ganoderma has a shiny cap surface (like Ganoderma lucidum) and Elfvingia has a dull cap surface, like Ganoderma applanatum.
