Mucronella flava is a small, distinctive fungus that grows in clusters often found on decaying wood. These mushrooms have tiny, pale pointed caps resembling spikes, which emerge straight from the wood, lacking a separate stem. They are part of a family known for varied and often club-shaped fungi that contribute to the decomposition of dead trees, thereby playing a role in forest ecosystems.
