It grows on fallen and dried branches of deciduous and broad-leaved trees, sometimes covering a large area.

Widely distributed throughout the northern hemisphere, including throughout Our Country.

Appears in spring in April-May and, under favorable conditions, grows until late autumn.

Exidia spruce (Exidia pithya) – grows on conifers, fruiting bodies are smooth. Some mycologists believe that spruce exsidia and blackening exsidia are the same species.

Exidia glandular (Exidia glandulosa) – grows only on broad-leaved species (oak, beech, hazel). Fruiting bodies never merge into a common mass. Spores in glandular exsidia are slightly larger.
