Trulla dentipora is a neotropical polypore fungus in the family Steccherinaceae, and the type species of the genus Trulla. Characteristics of this species are the irregularly shaped pores with jagged or teeth-like edges, and the sausage-shaped spores. Found in Venezuela, the fungus was originally described by mycologists Leif Ryvarden and Teresa Iturriaga in 2004 as a species of Antrodiella. The type was collected in Henri Pittier National Park, where it was found growing on a hardwood log.[2] Ryvarden and Otto Miettinen transferred the fungus to the newly created Trulla in 2016.[1]
