Gloeophyllum is a genus of fungus in the class Agaricomycetes. It is characterized by the production of leathery to corky tough, brown, shaggy-topped, revivable fruitbodies lacking a stipe and with a lamellate to daedaleoid or poroid fertile hymenial surfaces. The hyphal system is dimitic to trimitic. The genus is further characterized by the production of a brown rot of wood.[1][2] Phylogenetically, it along with several other brown rot Basidiomycota, Neolentinus, Heliocybe, and Veluticeps form an order called the Gloeophyllales.[3][4][5][6]
The most frequently encountered species in the Northern Hemisphere is Gloeophyllum sepiarium,[7] which is commonly found in a dried state on both bark-covered and decorticated conifer stumps and logs, timbers on wharfs, planks on unpainted wooden buildings, wood bridges, and even creosoted railroad ties.[citation needed]
Pharmacology[edit]
An extract of Gleophyllum odoratum exhibits high inhibitory activity on thrombin and trypsin[8] as well as cysteine protease.[9]
