Inocutis is a genus of nine species of polypore fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae.

Taxonomy

The genus was circumscribed by Jean-Louis Fiasson and Tuomo Niemeläin 1984 as a segregate genus from Inonotus . They originally included three European species formerly placed in Inonotus section Phymatopilus, ^[1] a grouping of species conceived by Marinus Anton Donk in 1974. ^[2] Molecular data later supported the genus concept. ^{[3] [4] [5]} Inocutis is phylogenetically close to Fomitiporella . ^[4]

Description

Inocutis species produce annual fruit bodies. They are characterized by the absence of setae, the presence of a rudimentary granular core, and the presence of sclerified hyphae in the granular core. They have yellowish to brownish spores that are ellipsoid in shape, and non-dextrinoid. The hyphal system is monomitic, consisting of only generative hyphae. They all grow on deciduous substrates. ^[4]
