The Brown Funnel Polypore (Coltricia perennis) is a species in the genus Coltricia. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in forest floors, decomposing wood, and soil ecosystems.

Coltricia confluens is a stipitate, brown polypore with concentric zones on the velvety cap surface and a thin central stalk, sometimes fusing with adjacent caps. It grows on sandy soils in open coniferous and mixed forests in temperate and boreal regions. This ectomycorrhizal fungus forms nutrient-exchange partnerships with tree roots, particularly pines and oaks.
