Hydnophlebia chrysorhiza is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Meruliaceae. It is characterized by its yellow to golden-brown rhizomorphs and white to cream-colored sporocarps. In East and Central Texas, Hydnophlebia chrysorhiza has been found growing on soil, decaying wood, and tree roots in deciduous and mixed forests, particularly under oak, beech, and pine trees. The fungus typically fruits from spring to fall, producing resupinate to effused-reflexed sporocarps with a smooth to velvety hymenium.
