Fungus of the Day
A striking and rare species of fungi native to the temperate forests of southern Chile. It grows in Nothofagus and Araucarias forests. It was discovered in 2014 by Giuliana Furci, by field mycologist and foundress of the Fungi Foundation. The pileus is dark, often blackish or deep gray, adorned with numerous white, star-like scales that resemble a galaxy of stars against a night sky, hence the name “galactica”. It has white lamellae and a white, firm stipe.
