Description
Baorangia is a group of fungi known for their vibrant, often yellow to reddish caps and stout stems. They thrive in symbiotic relationships with trees, aiding nutrient absorption. Some species have a distinctive blue staining reaction when the flesh is bruised or cut, providing a fascinating visual transformation. Typically found in temperate forests, they contribute significantly to forest ecosystems by decomposing organic matter and enriching the soil.
