Silly for day 2 of Funguary 2024: lilac coral fungus!
This guy is Zolli (he/him, one/ones), who has uhh funny symbiotic fungus. The fungus makes little weird fruits as it processes environmental toxins; the fruits are a way to store extra energy and are nutritious :]

The cremini is one of the most commonly and widely consumed mushrooms in the world. It is cultivated in over 70 countries. You’ve likely heard of this mushroom, it goes by several different names for its two different appearances in its immature state and even more names in its mature state. Some of these names include button mushroom, champignon, chestnut mushroom, and portobello.

my funguary day 9 art :]
out of all the ones I drew I should have done this one… might do it probs not it looks like a galactic snack *nom* (I don’t care if I get sick it looks good)
This is a lovely mushroom, and also a perfect example of mycorrhizal fungi!
The mushroom’s mycelium surrounds the roots of the tree and helps the tree to absorb water and nutrients. In exchange, the mushroom is provided with food and amino acids produced by the tree.

here on account of all of us neurodivergent folk who shall hyper fixate on this
and then most likely forget to do each day/get too overwhelmed by the idea of doing each day cause that’s how goes it…
A bit blank for now but once the time comes I'm adding my posts for each day of Funguary!
This event is hosted by feefal and is primarily a drawing challenge in which people create a character based on a mushroom for each day of February. I'm going to be doing the art in my own time and will likely only be posting a couple of my favorites.
However, I do plan to make a post for every day of February in which I talk about some of the cool science behind the mushroom of the day. We've got mushrooms that glow, mushrooms that digest themselves, and mushrooms that cause internal bleeding, so should be fun!
