Phellodon atratus is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in North America, it was described as new to science in 1964 by Canadian mycologist Kenneth A. Harrison.[1] It occurs most frequently closer to the Pacific coast and under Sitka spruce.[2]
The cap is dark violet to black, sometimes making it difficult to see. The margins are usually lighter. The flesh is violet or blue-black.[2]
Phellodon melaleucus is similar, but appears more brownish, also staining brown.[2]
