A pretty mushroom I haven't found before 🍄 .
It it may be a Lynx Paw Oyster (Pleurotus levis). To be sure I'd have to pull it and cut it up but I rather left it alone.

People buying AI written mushroom field guides which is incredibly dangerous.
I can’t believe this has to be said.
Instead, why not invest irl Mycology books? You know, written by people who spent years learning how to identify the HIGHLY LETHAL Death cap from several non toxic edible species. Or ask a friend with foraging experience to take you. Don’t risk it.

So the other day I looked at the soil in a potted plant in the kitchen, and I noticed these tiny little mushrooms. (Pic 1).
I did a little "internet research", and I think they're Bird's Nest Fungi. (Link below)
Once they have spores, the top of the mushroom cap opens up and reveals spore sacs, each containing millions of spores. 2 of them just started opening up, and you can just barely see the spore sacs. (Pic 2)

51 followers · 116 posts · Server qoto.orgPSA: It's fine and recommended to use the term "mushroom" to mean "mushroom". Don't use "fungus" when you're referring only to the fruit body because it would be wrong. The term "fungus" is normally used to refer to a whole organism* or a whole species/group of fungi.
*The notion of an organism in fungi is a bit special because the mycelium can freely be broken into isolated patches - but mushrooms are formed by many strands of mycelium (hyphae) from the same organism/strain getting together and making a beautiful mushroom with a single genome. Mushrooms are not chimeras, normally in most species (for what I know). However, if you mix multiple "individuals" i.e. mycelium from the same species with different genes, it's war. This can be observed on agar plates when growing mycelium from many spores that germinate and mate, resulting in different diploid patches that won't overlap and will slow each other's growth.

Pretty exciting to see oral amphotericin behaving comparably to IV amphotericin for #HIV associated #Cryptococcus #meningitis
Phase 2 open label #RCT, so not quite there yet, but big potential win in simplicity and access to treatment for
#Cryptococcusneoformans & other #fungal diseases, potentially even #mucor

Okay, #mycology mastodon, what am I looking at here? This mushroom is in Franklin Park in Boston, MA. Pretty wild, but I don't know anything about #fungi. #mushtodon #mushrooms
