Description
Macrotyphula are an intriguing group of fungi known for their distinctive long, slender, and often whip-like appearances. These fungi typically grow on decaying wood and leaf litter, making them valuable decomposers in forest ecosystems. Some species curl into fascinating shapes as they mature, adding to their unique visual appeal. They generally appear in late summer to autumn, taking part in the natural cycle of nutrient recycling through their saprophytic activities.
