Description
Chlorociboria is known for its striking blue-green color, which comes from a pigment called xylindein. This vibrant pigment not only stains the wood they grow on but has also been used in woodworking for decorative purposes since the 15th century. The fungi typically grow on decayed wood, making forests their common habitats. This distinctive coloration often draws attention, making chlorociboria easily recognizable for both enthusiasts and those new to mycology.
