youtube.com/shorts/WmPDRwX… Evernia prunastri – aka #oakmoss 🍃 A fragrant, tree-hugging lichen used in perfumes and bioindicators. Soft, shrubby, and sensitive to air pollution. Nature’s tiny chemist! #Lichen #LichensfromAtoZ #Mycology #fungi

youtu.be/lNXnFQ3KxQE You all know #Amanita muscaria for its "#Magic" effects, but in this video, you'll explore another side of this fascinating #fungus! #FlyAgaric is much more than just #psychedelic — it has a rich ecological role and cultural history! #mushrooms #science

#FungalFact 30: The largest organism on #Earth isn’t a whale or a tree — it’s a #fungus. In #Oregon, the honey fungus (#Armillaria ostoyae) stretches over 9 km², may weigh 35,000 tons, and could be up to 8,000 years old. A true underground giant! #mycology #nature #Mushroom #PhD

youtube.com/shorts/QFDb5ok… #FungalFact 31: New video about #Graphis – the script #lichen”! Its black apothecia look like tiny letters written on bark. Found in tropical forests, Graphis isn’t just beautiful—it also produces unique compounds like lichexanthone & norstictic acid.

Get familiar with #lichens! Hypogymnia’s hollow, inflated lobes act like capillary sponges—soaking up fog/rain fast, then drying quickly to avoid damage. Learn more in my new short video: youtube.com/shorts/9XNGM5k… #mycology #fungi #mushrooms #conidia #science #nature #YouTube

#FungiFriday Have you ever seen a lichen that looks like a tiny starburst of salt? 🌟 That’s #Imshaugia! Pale, compact rosettes brightening pine bark in open forests. New short video is out now 👇 youtube.com/shorts/VNyqxw7… #mycology #fungi #lichens #mushrooms #phdone #FOREST

#FungalFact #32 youtu.be/9-bKdXCxz3Y?si… Hidden inside every growing hypha lies a microscopic powerhouse — the #Spitzenkörper. It’s not just a blob at the fungal tip — it’s the traffic controller, architect, and GPS of fungal growth. 🍄 Without it, no filament, no mycelium, no

I found this POOPshroom in forest of North Macedonia )) It might not win a beauty contest, but don't judge the fungus by its crust !:)))) #Ganoderma is a legendary medicinal fungus used for centuries for immunity and longevity. #fungus #mushrooms #mycology #foraging #Forest

youtube.com/shorts/XBHMnBu… #FangalFact 33: Jamesiella is one of those lichens you could easily walk past without ever noticing. It hides among mosses in damp forests, delicate and quiet — and honestly, we still know very little about it. A small mystery in the lichen world.

#FungalFact 34: youtube.com/shorts/xfl2drv… I just shared a video on #Kurokawia palmulata. For almost 200 years, it was known under the wrong name, and only recent DNA work revealed its real place. A simple #lichen, but a good reminder of how our understanding changes over time. 🍃
