Fun Guy

Imagine, if you will, a secret society whose sole purpose is to promote fungi. Imagine that group carefully selecting one of the thousands of species of fungi to be "Fungus of the Year." Say hello to this year's honoree: cobalt crust fungus

I don't know which is more disturbing, the existence of the Mycological Society or the fact that they select a Fungus of the Year. I wonder what kind of back-room bargaining allowed Terana caerulea to come out on top of Ganoderma applanatum.
