Trametes palisotii, based on Daedalea palisotii, is a pantropical white bracket polypore with maze-like to slot-shaped pores, recorded from West and Central Africa, tropical America and Asia. It is not a commercial species; conditions come from the measured climate at recorded sites and genus traits.
