Description

The real applanatum fungus is popularly called tinder fungus because the dried fungus used to be used as tinder (highly flammable material for making fire). The tinder was carried in a tinderbox together with striking material (flint and marcasite). The fungus grows on diseased and dead trees and is a slow grower. A specimen with a diameter of 20 centimeters can be decades old.
