Cage Fungus: When the conditions are moist and there is plenty of mulch to feed on, the cage fungus produces a fruiting body that looks and smells like rotting meat. (Josh Cassidy/KQED)
Bird's Nest Fungi: This bird’s nest fungus species is known by the scientific name Crucibulum laeve. The part of the fungus that looks like a nest is known as the ‘splash cup,’ and the ‘eggs’ are sacs that contain millions of spores. This tiny fungus grows on twigs or logs on the forest floor, or on mulch. (Josh Cassidy/KQED)
Death Cap: Mature death caps in West Marin’s Point Reyes National Seashore in December 2016. A piece of tissue called the annulus helps identify the death cap mushroom. The annulus can be shaped like a little skirt, or like a ring below the cap. (Gabriela Quirós/KQED)
