Demon cigar scientific name "Chorioactis", Chinese name "Grass-shaped Crackworm". It is one of the rarest mushrooms in the world and is also called the "Texas Star". This weird mushroom only exists in central Texas, USA, two remote areas in Japan, and the Nara Mountains. The demon cigar is dark brown and has sporangia that looks like a cigar. After it cracks, it turns into a tan star shape, releasing spores and making completely different whistles. Demon cigars are one of the few fungi known to whistle when spores are released.
Brain mushroom, deer flower fungus, a kind of fungus, widely distributed in Europe and North America. It occurs in spring and early summer and generally grows in sandy soil under pine and cypress trees. Its fruit body (i.e. mushroom) has an irregular brain shape, and is generally dark brown in color, about 10 cm tall and 15 cm wide, and lives on a thick white stalk at a height of 6 cm inches. Although it is a poisonous and inedible fungus species, it is still a popular delicacy in Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and the northern regions of the five major lakes in North America. In Spain, it is banned. In Finland, its sale is not prohibited, but must be accompanied by clear warning signs and detailed instructions for correct use. It cannot be eaten raw and must be cooked half-cooked when eaten, but even if it is fully cooked, it cannot be guaranteed to be completely safe.
Hydnelum pecki (Hydnelum pecki), also known as Blood-tooth fungus, actually has many different names, all of which are related to oranges or blood. This fungus is commonly found in the United States, especially in the Northwest Pacific region, and is also usually grown in pine forests.
As soon as you see it, you will think that the bright red liquid on its cover was splashed on its white cover when it passed by. But if you observe carefully, you will find that this is the liquid that oozes out of its own pores. Blood tooth bacteria are also called "devil teeth" or "strawberry with cream" and are not toxic. However, the mushroom tastes bitter to avoid becoming a meal on the plate for humans and animals. Scientists have analyzed that the bright red liquid oozing from the blood dental bacteria contains an anticoagulant called "Atromentrin", which has similar properties to the natural organic anticoagulant hepatolipid.
Another unusual member of the fungal family - Blood-tooth fungus, it has many different names, all of which are related to oranges or blood. This fungus is commonly found in the United States, especially in the Pacific Northwest, and is also commonly grown in pine forests. It has also been found in Europe and has recently been found in Iran and South Korea. As soon as you see it, you will think that the bright red liquid on its germ cover was splashed on its white germ cover when it passed by. But if you observe carefully, you will find that this is the liquid that oozes out of its own pores.
Giant bald ponyball, a ponyball, the typical specimen is similar to the size of a football, white. Currently, the largest one is found to be 5 feet long and weighs 50 pounds.
According to its shape and size, the giant bald ponytail is easy to identify. The typical specimen is similar to the size of a football, but not so round. However, it may be much larger than a football (the largest one is currently found to be 5 feet long and 50 pounds!), and it is more shaped like a ball than a ball. But it can never look like an inverted pear, because it does not have the sterile foundation part of the kind that other ponybobies are common. The mature ponyballs will explode with a touch of light, and a kind of dust fog will explode. Giant bald ponybores often grow after rain and are an inappropriate fungus.

is named this popular name from their shape, and this mushroom looks very similar to the fan-shaped tail of a wild turkey.
Scientific name: turkey tail mushroom, origin: usually appear around the world
Medicinal value: Generally speaking, turkey tail mushrooms are not edible, and they are often used as prescription materials in traditional Chinese medicine. Recent research and analysis of turkey tail mushrooms found that it contains isolated polysan-K, a booster of the human immune system. Japanese medicine once used this substance as an adjuvant for cancer treatment.
Sky Blue Mushroom (Entoloma Hochstetteri) is a mushroom of the Toadsaceae family. It is a mushroom that can be seen in New Zealand and India. It has a unique all-blue color and is mainly distributed in the woods in the west of New Zealand North Island and South Island , and grows in moist soil, especially in litter and moss in broadleaf forests and pine forests.
In 2002, New Zealand issued a fungal stamp series, including Hol's Powder Fritillaria, with sky blue mushroom patterns on the back of the New Zealand 50 dollar bill.
This mushroom that looks like noodles has many different names, such as lion's mane mushroom, monkey head mushroom , hedgehog mushroom, beard tooth mushroom, etc.
, the mushroom that looks like noodles, is the scientific name "Hericium erinaceus", and can be seen on live and dead trees (usually broad-leaved trees). Bearded mushrooms are edible and have similar colors and textures to seafood after being served. This mushroom is also called "heedgehog mushroom" or "Sathiros' beard" (Sathiros is the god of forest who is half human and half sheep). Although it is not a delicacy, it is good for the body. For hundreds of years, traditional Chinese medicine has used this mushroom to treat diseases. Scientists have discovered that bearded mushrooms have antioxidant effects and can lower glucose levels in the blood. Scientists are studying it to determine whether compounds that can be found that can be used to develop dementia prevention drugs. [1-2]

Recent researchers have found the small mushroom Mycena luxarboricola that can fluoresce in the rainforest near the Atlantic Ocean in Brazil, which grows on bark alone. Des Jardin of San Francisco State University said: "When you walk through the rainforest, you will find the trees shining."
The reason why the fungus is glowing is still a mystery. Mushrooms usually glow where spores are contained, and some scientists believe this may help attract insects’ attention and help them spread the spores elsewhere to produce new mushrooms. However, in the fox fire phenomenon, the mycelium , like the linear (the part that allows the fungi to obtain nutrients) will shine.
If they are very attractive luminous structures, insects being attracted to mycelium can be harmful or unhealthy to them. "We don't know why myceliums shine. Maybe they glow to attract natural enemies of these insects and are wiped out by their natural enemies before these insects destroy the mycelium. But we don't have any data that can support this view."
Poisonous Fly Umbilian Psychedelic Mushroom (scientific name: Amanita muscaria), also known as Poisonous Fly Agaric, Fly Agaric, English commonly known as Fly Agaric or Fly Amanita is a fungus of Basidiomycetes containing neurotoxicity, one of the genus Amanita. The fruiting body of this fungus is larger. The cap is 6-20cm wide. It has obvious short edges on the edge, bright red or orange-red on the surface, and white or slightly yellow granular scales. The folds of the fungus are pure white, dense, free and not equally long. The flesh is white and red near the epidermis of the cover. Today, the poisonous fly amber is mainly famous for its hallucination toxicity, and its mental stimulation component is a compound, muscimol. This toxin is used by residents of Siberia as a drug to cause hallucination and feel out of body, and has a major cultural connotation of religion. The Tungus people and Yaku of Siberia used people as traditional festival edible fungi. Generally, adults will feel infatuated after eating one, which they believe. It is a treat. India uses it as a magician's potion. It is used as a sleeping drug among some countries. The toxins in Northeast China crushed the toxins and mixed them into rice to poison flies, and even mice and other harmful animals. There have been many speculations about the traditional use of this mushroom , which is believed to be used to cause hallucinations across Siberia, but these legends are too long to be fully verified. Robert Gordon Watson, a US banker and amateur behavioral mycologist, proposed that the poison fly umbrella is actually the somo wine mentioned in the Indian religious classic "Rigveda". Even though this theory was refuted by anthropologists, it was widely recognized when the theory was first published in 1968.
