Fomitopsis pinicola, is a stem decay fungus common on softwood and hardwood trees.[1] Its conk (fruit body) is known as the red-belted conk. The species is common throughout temperate Europe and Asia.[1] It is a decay fungus that serves as a small-scale disturbance agent in coastal rainforest ecosystems. It influences stand structure and succession in temperate rainforests. It performs essential nutrient cycling functions in forests.[2] As well as a key producer of brown rot residues that are stable soil components in coniferous forest ecosystems.[3] It has been reported that mushrooms have significant antioxidant activity.[4]
