  • Spores
    Spores 5.5-7.0 x 1.5-2.0 µm, smooth, allantoid (curved cylindrical); spore print off-white.

  • Comments
    Though not the most common of our local conks, Fomitopsis cajanderi is easily the prettiest. The mahogany-brown to almost black shelves of fresh Fomitopsis cajanderi with contrasting rose-pink margins and pores are a visual delight. In age the pink color becomes muted but specimens are still easily recognized.
