Hymenogaster sulcatus is a subterranean fungus typically found in soil or under leaf litter, making it part of a group known as truffle-like fungi. It forms symbiotic relationships with tree roots, helping trees absorb nutrients while receiving sugars in return. Characteristically, hymenogaster sulcatus develops spores within its enclosed fruiting body, and these are dispersed by animals that dig them up.
