Peniophora violaceolivida is a corticioid basidiomycete fungus producing smooth, resupinate (crust-like) fruiting bodies with violet to olive-grey tones on dead wood of broadleaf trees. It is a wood decomposer found in temperate European forests, contributing to white rot of hardwood. The species is one of many Peniophora fungi that colonise dead branches and fallen logs in woodland.
