This Mycena chlorophos was found in Singapore and was so bright Callie found them glowing like tiny green lanterns from a distance, entirely at night. Of all the mushroom species that she has hunted, this is by far the brightest.

hi!! welcome! i dump nature stuff here - my posts are mostly pictures/rambles, focusing on fungi and plants, but i may post about insects or reblog fantasy art occasionally. i'm interested in mycology, microbiology, and ecology :)

i try to identify the biodiversity i post about, but i'm not an expert (still studying) - doing this for fun and for accessibility. let me know if i identified them wrongly! i won't be doing identifications for this reason

Filoboletus manipularis is found in south-east Asia, Australia and other parts of the world. No one would guess that these seemingly ordinary mushrooms glow at night like magical toadstools in a fairy wonderland.

A compass jellyfish, one of the most commonly spotted, recorded in a survey of marine wildlife of the UK coastline. Members of the public have reported a total of 1,315 jellyfish sightings to the Marine Conservation Society (MCS) for its annual report including a 2% increase in the man o’war. The MCS regularly records sightings of eight jellyfish species with the compass jellyfish making up 23% of sightings and the moon jellyfish also accounting for 23% of reports, seen in smacks – groups of jellyfish – of more than 100.
