Antrodia albida is a species of fungus in the genus Antrodia that grows on the dead wood of deciduous trees. A widely distributed species, it is found in Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, North America, and South America.[2] The fungus was first described under the name Daedalea albida by Elias Magnus Fries in his 1815 work Observationes mycologicae.[3] Marinus Anton Donk transferred it to Antrodia in 1960.[4]
