Remember Folks, At The End Of The Day It Doesn't Matter If Scar Or Zam Wins, Because Ivory+Ranboo Is

Fungi I found on my hike!

I WAS looking for morels, didn't find them but did find these guys!

I think top right is a wood ear mushroom, and bottom right is for sure a cedar apple rust fungi, but I don't know about the others

This is one of my extra works for the art event I'm in currently, the @mcyt-soulmate-sweepstakes!

It was made to match my teammate @that-onecookiehead's fic for week one!

Prompt: Bonfire

Points: 875

heya ik we're not moots but tell me somethign and i'll draw it (preferrably epic or mcyt or like. Actual things that exist. Butttt pop off do anything)

We're mutuals now :D

I know mcyt a lot better than epic tbh, for epic possibly Aeolus? She is my favorite character and gets no art 😞

Aaaand for mcyt how about Cleo and the Ghost of Bdubs horse? Or possibly Grian's insanely excessive welcome back gift?

Funguary Day 13: Fly Agaric

The Fly Agaric is quite possibly the most iconic mushroom there is. It was traditionally used as an insecticide. The cap was broken into pieces and sprinkled into saucers of milk. It contains ibotenic acid which both attracts and kills flies, thus, giving it its name.

Eat them Minecraft trees

@that-onecookiehead

Whoa :0

They're so neat!!!!

Funguary Day 27: Scarlet Cup

Most species that would come to mind when you think of fungi are basidiomycetes, fungi that produce their spores in cells called basidia. This phylum of fungi contains most of the “fleshy” fungi, including all fungi with gills or pores. Some “fleshy” fungi however, like the Scarlet Cup, are Ascomycetes. Mushrooms like morels and saddle fungi are also a part of this phylum. Ascomycetes produce their spores in sac-like structures called asci, unlike the basidia of the basidiomycetes. See the diagram below for more clarification on the difference between asci and basidia!

Funguary Day 22: Oyster Mushroom

While most fungi get their nutrients through decomposing organic matter or through symbiotic relationships with plants, some, like oyster mushrooms, are carnivorous. These carnivorous fungi are known as “nematophagous”, given their ability to hunt and eat nematode worms. Most nematode-eating fungi only resort to hunting when there is insufficient food to eat. There are several methods these fungi will use to catch the nematode worms. The oyster mushroom in particular grows a hyphal stalk with a single toxic droplet on the end that paralyzes the worms, giving the oyster mushroom enough time to grow through the mouth of the worm and digest it from inside. 

Other similar fungi grow adhesive nets or branches to which the nematodes stick or create a noose that inflates within a tenth of a second when touched. Yet another way some nematode-hunting fungi will catch prey is by releasing spores that can swim through the soil, then bind to the nematode worms. Once attached, they sprout, and the fungus harpoons the nematode with specialized hyphae known as “gun cells”.

NEVERMIND I HATE FUNGI NOW TOO

-plant hate anon

D:

I-

I have no words-

how could you 😭

@overwhelmedfernfrond heeeeelp 😭😭

A team that (almost) rivals Ivory and Ranboo

“vote scar!!” “No vote zam!!” Yap yap yap YAPPPPP NO I SAY WE VOTE BOTH. Put them on the same percentage, I want to see them both on a team
