Antrodiella pallescens is a species of fungus in the family Steccherinaceae. It is a wood-decaying fungus that grows on dead trees, particularly conifers. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Antrodiella pallescens has been found to be relatively rare, typically fruiting on spruce and pine logs in old-growth forests and urban parks. The fungus produces resupinate to effused-reflexed basidiocarps with a pale yellowish to cream-colored pore surface.
