Genus of fungi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sarea is a genus of small, non-lichenized, inoperculate,[1] discomycete fungi in the family Zythiaceae.[2][3] Sarea species are found growing on the resin of conifers in the Cupressaceae and Pinaceae in the Northern Hemisphere.[1] Two species in the genus are readily distinguishable from each other: apothecia of Sarea difformis are black, while those of Sarea resinae are orange in color.[1]
