It's just more dry rotted pieces of the tree...areas that have been dead and get dry.
Actually dry rotted wood is caused by a fungus.

it is pieces that are rotting and it absorbs water , I jut split some hickory and had to throw some in my burn pit and I would not smoke with it .

Yep, same here. Wouldn't smoke with it, but it will be great for the fire pit this fall after the weather cools down a bit.

I do a lot of wood cutting and splitting. I've cut into trees that seem pretty solid,
only to find they are brittle and shatter easy. I don't know the cause, but I thought
maybe insects that have eaten the pulp or cellulose out of the wood.
Just not sure.
