Steccherinum subulatum is a hydnoid fungus of the family Steccherinaceae. Found in China, it was described as new to science by mycologists Hai-Sheng Yuan and Yu-Cheng Dai in 2005. The type collection was found growing on a fallen Celtis branch in Shennongjia Nature Reserve (Hubei province). The specific epithet subulatum (meaning subulate) refers to the shape of its skeletocystidia.[1]
