Description
Atractiellales are fascinating fungi primarily known for their role in decomposing dead plant material. They thrive in damp, wooded areas and contribute significantly to nutrient cycling in forests. Remarkably, some species in this group have distinctive fruiting bodies with bright colors, making them easily recognizable in their natural habitats. Despite their ecological importance, they remain relatively understudied, providing an exciting opportunity for future mycological research.
