Resupinate fungi (Crust fungi)
These fungi grow flat against the substrate. This is a morphological grouping of many diverse and often unrelated species. They are sometimes referred to as corticioid fungi or crust fungi. Some species appear as definite crusts while others are like a splash of paint. There are many crusts which are white or cream in colour.
