The Genus Fomes
The Species of Genus Fomes are easily recognized since they are typically hard, woody species that live for years on tree trunks. In addition, Fomes are typically sessile plants, which means they must have a solid attachment to the host to survive for several years. Fomes are classified as either angulate, hoof-shaped, applanate or somewhat thin-shaped. The general shape of the species is usually distinctive, compared to a Polyporus, which are soft, fleshy, annual species; the Genus Fomes are subwoody, perennial species. In the same species, the colour may vary by a few shades, but the context colour is usually the most distinguishing feature.
