AI-generated description

Neoantrodia serialis is a crust fungus that grows on deciduous trees, particularly oak and elm. In East and Central Texas, it has been found to fruit in the spring and fall, typically on living trees with wounds or dead branches. The fungus produces resupinate to effused-reflexed basidiocarps with a yellowish to golden-brown pore surface and a white to cream-colored margin. It is relatively common in the region, particularly in areas with rich soil and high humidity.
