Description

Ophiocordyceps is a parasitic group of fungi known for infecting insects and arthropods. They take control of their host's behavior, often causing them to climb to elevated positions before death. The fungus then grows from the host's body, producing spore-releasing structures. Some species in this group have been studied for potential medicinal properties.
