Radulodon copelandii is known as Asian Beauty due to its recent arrival in the US typically found on logs and decaying wood.[1] It was first found by J. Ginns and Lawrence Millman in Massachusetts in 2009.[2] It is a toothed crust fungus identified by white flattened teeth.[3] The basidia are located at the tip of each tooth[4]
