Basidiomycota, also known as filamentous fungi, is a diverse group of organisms that includes some fascinating and visually stunning species. In the snowy landscapes of Los Alcornocales Natural Park, Fly agaric mushrooms (Amanita muscaria) stand out with their vibrant red caps speckled with white dots. These iconic fungi are just one example of the captivating beauty found within Basidiomycota. Venturing into The New Forest in Hampshire, UK during October reveals another intriguing member of this fungal phylum - Porcelain fungus (Oudemansiella mucida). Backlit by sunlight, its delicate gills can be seen underneath its cap like an ethereal lacework. Meanwhile, Mycena fungi (Mycena) emerge from mossy logs in Broxwater, Cornwall during November, adding pops of color to the damp forest floor. Nature's spore dispersal mechanisms come alive through the Common puffball fungus (Apioperdon pyriforme), which emits clouds of spores into the air. This spectacle showcases how Basidiomycota play a vital role in ecosystem functioning and reproduction. In deciduous woodlands across various regions, large clumps of Honey fungus (Armillaria mellea) thrive on tree stumps. Their interconnected mycelium forms vast networks underground while above ground they display golden hues against the backdrop of autumn foliage. The Yellow stagshorn fungus (Calocera viscosa) adds a touch of vibrancy to Tollymore Forest in County Down, Northern Ireland. Its bright yellow branches resemble tiny antlers sprouting from fallen logs or decaying wood. Annagarriff Wood NNR at Peatlands Park introduces us to the Bruising webcap mushroom (Cortinarius purpurascens). With its purple-tinged cap and intricate veil-like cortina covering its gills when young, it exemplifies the diversity within Basidiomycota.
