Description
Spinellus are fascinating organisms that are particularly known for their parasitic relationship with mushrooms. These fungi latch onto other fungi, creating a striking visual effect where delicate, hair-like structures emerge from the host mushroom. This group can often be found in moist forest environments where mushrooms are plentiful. Spinellus's lifecycle fascinates researchers because it involves hitching a ride on other fungi to thrive and spread.
