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 InonotussectionPhymatopilus,[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]
