fuligo
Fuligo is a fascinating slime mold that can look like a yellow or white blob! It loves to grow on decaying wood and can even move to find food!
Hábitat: Fuligo thrives in damp, shady areas, often found on decaying logs and leaf litter.
The Fuligo has a striking, often frothy appearance, resembling scrambled eggs or foam. It typically starts bright yellow or creamy white, maturing into a crusty, brownish-black blob. Its amorphous shape makes it look quite unlike a typical mushroom.
