Prototaxites / ˌ p r oʊ t oʊ ˈ t æ k s ɪ t iː z / is an extinct genus of terrestrial fungi dating from the Late Silurian until the Late Devonian periods. [1] [2] Prototaxites formed large trunk-like structures up to 1 metre (3 ft) wide, reaching 8 metres (26 ft) in length, [3] made up of interwoven tubes around 50 micrometres (0.0020 in) in diameter, making it by far the largest land ...
Infundibulicybe geotropa, also known as the trooping funnel or monk's head, is a large funnel-shaped toadstool with a sturdy cream or buff colour. It grows widely in Europe and (less commonly) in North America in mixed woodlands, often in troops or fairy rings, one of which is over half a mile wide.

Hygrocybe conica is a species of agaric (gilled mushroom) in the family Hygrophoraceae. In the UK it has been given the recommended English name of blackening waxcap, [1] since all parts of the basidiocarp (fruit body) blacken with age. In North America it is commonly known as the witch's hat, conical wax cap or conical slimy cap.
The red colour may fade after rain and in older mushrooms. The free gills are white, as is the spore print. The oval spores measure 9–13 by 6.5–9 μm; they do not turn blue with the application of iodine. [29]
Bioluminescent Mycena roseoflava Panellus stipticus, one of about 125 known species of bioluminescent fungi. Found largely in temperate and tropical climates, currently there are more than 125 known species of bioluminescent fungi, [1] all of which are members of the order Agaricales (Basidiomycota) with one possible exceptional ascomycete belonging to the order Xylariales. [2]
The mushroom is left for several hours, often overnight, in this manner. Some guides advise using a moisture-resistant enclosure, like a glass or jar, to contain the mushroom during printing. If the mushroom is to be preserved, a small hole can be made in the spore print paper rather than cutting the stipe . [ 2 ]
