Fomitiporia ellipsoidea has the largest fruiting body among the fungi
Yu-Cheng Dai et al. Fungal Biol. 2011 Sep.
Abstract
A giant polypore, Fomitiporia ellipsoidea, was found in Hainan Island in southern China. It was 20 y old, and its estimated volume was 409 000-525 000cm(3) and weight was 400-500kg. This is the first report of the largest fungal fruiting body both in volume and weight.
