Urnula mexicana is a type of fungi that typically appears in early spring. It thrives in forested areas, particularly under conifer trees. Recognizable by its dark, cup-shaped structure, it initially looks like a buried charcoal piece. Over time, it opens up, revealing its distinctive shape. Urnula mexicana contributes to the decomposition of wood, aiding in forest nutrient cycling.
