AI-generated description

Radulodon aneirinus is a species of tooth fungus that belongs to the family Hydnodontaceae. It is characterized by its resupinate fruiting body, creamy white to pale yellowish color, and presence of teeth or spines on the hymenium. In East and Central Texas, Radulodon aneirinus has been found growing on decaying wood, particularly on deciduous trees such as oak and maple, in moist environments like riverbanks and floodplains. The fungus is relatively rare in the region, but can be locally common in areas with suitable habitat.

AI-generated summary of observations

Observations of the fungus Radulodon aneirinus in East and Central Texas reveal its presence on standing dry juniper trees. On December 25, 2021, at Lake Bastrop South Shore Park's North South Trailway, the fungus was found in various forms. It appeared as a resupinate polypore mushroom, potentially also identifiable as Radulomyces or Ceriporiopsis, on multiple occasions. The fungus displayed different colors, including two distinct hues on one occasion and a brown color on another. The texture of the brown variant was also observed. These sightings suggest that Radulodon aneirinus may thrive on dry juniper trees in this region, exhibiting variability in appearance. The fungus's ability to grow on dead wood indicates its role as a decomposer in these ecosystems. Further study could confirm the identity and habits of this fungus in East and Central Texas.
