Fomes is a genus of perennial woody fungi in the family Polyporaceae. Species are typically hoof-shaped (ungulate). New growth each season is added to the margin, resulting in a downward extension of the hymenium.[1] This often results in a zonate appearance of the upper surface, that is, marked by concentric bands of color.
