Scutellinia vitreola is a small cup fungus in the family Pyronemataceae, producing scarlet, disc-shaped apothecia fringed with stiff dark hairs along the margin that are diagnostic for the genus. It grows on moist, decaying wood, wet soil, and plant debris in humid forest environments. As a saprotrophic ascomycete, it contributes to the decomposition of lignocellulosic material on the forest floor.
