Bondarzewia mesenterica (synonym: Bondarzewia montana) is a species of polypore fungus in the family Bondarzewiaceae. It was first described as Boletus mesentericus by Jacob Christian Schäffer in 1774.[2] Hanns Kreisel transferred it to the genus Bondarzewia in 1984.[3] The species is edible.[4]
The species grows at the base of conifers, developing from a sclerotium. The caps are tomentose with brownish zones, fan-shaped, often overlapping and growing from a shared base. The flesh is whitish with a pleasant odour when fresh. The species affects tree bases and roots with a white rot.[5]
