Description
Leotiomycetes are a class of fungi rather than plants, primarily characterized by their unique cup-shaped fruiting bodies often found in moist environments. They typically feature a white, yellow, or brownish hue, crucial for their identification. These fungi play a pivotal role in ecosystems, breaking down organic matter and contributing to nutrient cycles, which allows them to thrive in varied habitats.
