Extract from Wikipedia article: Climacocystis borealis is a species of poroid fungus in the family Fomitopsidaceae.
Climacocystis borealis is a species of fungus in the family Fomitopsidaceae. It is a brown rot fungus that grows on coniferous trees, particularly spruce and pine. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Climacocystis borealis has been found to be widely distributed, often occurring on dead or dying trees in forests and urban areas. The fungus produces annual growth layers and can form large, bracket-like fruiting bodies that are 5-20 cm in diameter. It is a common species in the region's coniferous forests, playing a role in decomposing wood and recycling nutrients.
