Mycena roseilignicola

Mycena roseilignicola is a species of fungus that can be found in various parts of the world, especially in temperate and tropical areas. This fungus is often found growing on rotting wood, such as fallen branches or rotting logs. Its characteristic is its small size, usually in diameter 1 to 3 centimeters long, and a pink or reddish cap.

One of the most unique features of Mycena roseilignicola is its preference for lignin-rich substrates, hence its name. Lignin is a complex organic polymer found in plant cell walls, especially wood. This fungus has developed the ability to break down lignin, making it an important player in the decomposition of dead wood and recycling of nutrients in forest ecosystems. By breaking down lignin, Mycena roseilignicola helps release carbon and other important elements back into the soil, which can be absorbed by plants and used in new growth.
