Phellodon melaleucus, commonly known as the grey tooth,[2] is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. It was originally described by Elias Magnus Fries in 1815 as a species of Hydnum.[3] In 1881, Petter Karsten included it as one of the original three species in his newly circumscribed genus Phellodon.[4] The fungus is widely distributed in Europe and North America, where it associates mycorrhizally with a wide range of host trees. It is considered vulnerable in Switzerland.[5]
