Trametes hirsuta, commonly known as hairy turkey tail{{Cite book |last=Arora |first=David |author-link=David Arora |url=https://archive.org/details/arora-david-mushrooms-demystified-a-comprehensive-guide-to-the-fleshy-fungi-ten-speed-press-1986/page/595/mode/2up |title=Mushrooms Demystified: A Comprehensive Guide to the Fleshy Fungi |publisher=Ten Speed Press |year=1986 |isbn=978-0-89815-170-1 |edition=2nd |location=Berkeley, CA |pages=595 |orig-date=1979}} or hairy bracket, is a species of fungus.
Description
The cap is up to {{Convert|15|cm|frac=2}} wide, exceptionally 30 cm. It is whitish gray, with short hairs and subtle zoning, sometimes tomentose and yellowish or darker near the margin. The flesh is tough, up to {{Convert|5|mm|frac=4}} thick, with a soft gray upper layer and a whitish lower layer separated by a black plane.{{cite book|last1=Trudell|first1=Steve|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WevHvt6Tr8kC|title=Mushrooms of the Pacific Northwest|last2=Ammirati|first2=Joe|publisher=Timber Press|year=2009|isbn=978-0-88192-935-5|series=Timber Press Field Guides|location=Portland, OR|pages=264|language=en}} It is too tough for consumption.

Similar species include T. pubescens, which is unzoned, buff in colour, and without layered flesh. T. versicolor is more distinctively zoned. T. occidentalis appears to be closely related.
Ecology
A plant pathogen, it is found on dead wood of deciduous trees, especially beechwood. It is found all year round and persists due to its leathery nature.Phillips, Roger (2006), Mushrooms. Pub. McMilan, {{ISBN|0-330-44237-6}}. P. 317.
Biotechnology
Lyophilized cell cultures of Trametes hirsuta yield aldehydes from alkenes, representing a biotransformation alternative to ozonolysis.{{cite book|author1=Sutton, Peter |author2=Whittall, John |title=Practical Methods for Biocatalysis and Biotransformations 2|date=2012|publisher=John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.|location=Chichester, West Sussex|isbn=9781119991397|pages=200–202|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WlODZ-WX8vIC&q=9781119991397}}
