The fungus that causes dry rot in North America is called Meruliporia incrassata (also sometimes called Poria incrassata). This pore fungus feeds on the cells of the wood that give it strength and stability.
dry rot: A misnomer, this term has been used to describe decayed wood that has since dried and ceased decaying. Some people may erroneously assume that the wood is still in the process of decay. Moisture is required for wood decay to occur, so no literal dry rot exists.
