| | Action plan for Grouped plan for tooth fungi |
 | | This group of stipitate hydnoid fungi are known as `stalked tooth fungi` because the spore-bearing surface beneath the cap is composed of teeth-like projections. |
 | | Threatened tooth fungi in the UK include Bankera fuligineoalba (C), Hydnellum aurantiacum (C), Hydnellum caeruleum (B+C), Hydnellum concrescens (B+C), Hydnellum ferrugineum (C), Hydnellum peckii (C), Hydnellum scrobiculatum (C), Hydnellum spongiospies (B), Phellodon confluens (B), Phellodon melaleucus (B+C), Phellodon tomentosus (C), Sarcodon glaucopus (C), Sarcodon imbricatus (C) and Sarcodon scabrosus (B+C(?)). |
 | | Consider notifying as SSSIs, sites with viable populations of tooth fungi, where this is consistent with selection guidelines and is necessary to ensure their long-term protection and appropriate management. |
