Description
Phaeoclavulina is a fascinating group of fungi known for their coral-like appearance, often displaying vibrant colors from yellow to brown. These fungi typically grow on the ground in forested areas, particularly favoring rich, decaying organic matter. They play a crucial role in forest ecosystems by breaking down dead wood and leaf litter, recycling nutrients back into the soil. Some species in this group exhibit an intriguing branching structure, resembling tiny, intricate trees.
