The following list of bioluminescent mushrooms is based on a 2008 literature survey by Dennis Desjardin and colleagues, [11] in addition to accounts of several new species published since then. [12] [13] [14] [15]
It is the largest group of mushroom-forming fungi, and includes more than 600 genera and over 25,000 species. [1] Molecular phylogenetics analyses of ribosomal DNA sequences have led to advances in our understanding of the Agaricales, and substantially revised earlier assessments of families and genera .

Omphalotus olearius, [2] commonly known as the jack-o'-lantern mushroom, is a poisonous orange gilled mushroom that to an untrained eye appears similar to some chanterelles.
