Fraaisteelmycena / (Mycena inclinata) /clustered bonnet. This is from september 2025. Scrolling through my pictures there are so much beautiful mushrooms I saw and did not share. The mycelium are apparently bioluminescent, the mushroom itself not. Although I love spring very much, I do also already look forward to next autumn

With more scientists and artists turning their attention to #bioluminescence, new information about glowing #fungi is coming to light https://www.biographic.com/glowing-from-within/

Is the bioluminescence in many #Mycena species overlooked? By Renate Heinzelmann et al. https://doi.org/10.47371/mycosci.2024.03.001

"Mycena crocata is one of 125 or so species of fungi known to produce their own light. That they luminesce was only discovered recently... even wood interlaced with strands of fungi radiates green light"

Bleeding fairy helmet (Mycena haematopus) or grote bloedsteelmycena in Dutch is probably their name. Scrolling back to my pictures of the beginning of autumn I found these beauties. They bleed red drops of latex when damaged. Apparently they are a bit bioluminecent, but I did not see them in the dark.

Winter is coming for the mycena as well.

Mycena tenerrima from Pacific County, Washington. This tiny and widespread Mycena is in Mycena sect. Sacchariferae due to the powdery cap texture, stem with long setae and disc at the stem base.

An undescribed Mycena from the M. amicta group photographed yesterday in Aberdeen, Washington. This group of species is recognizable due to the blue colors, especially on the stem base and the conspicuous setae on the stem.
