Sarcodon fuscoindicus is a species of tooth fungus in the genus Sarcodon. Found in the western United States, it produces fruit bodies with a violet-black cap, violet flesh, and violet spines on the cap underside. The fungus was first described by K.A.Harrison in 1964 as a species of Hydnum,[2] then transferred to Sarcodon in 1967 by Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus. He placed this species in section Violacei of Sarcodon, along with S. talpa and S. joides.[3]
