Funguary Day 14: Crepidotus

The term Crepidotus refers to a whole genus of fungi characterized by their small convex or fan shaped caps and their growth of decaying wood or plant debris. The most visually notable member of this genus I could find was the cinnabar oysterling, a mushroom with a bright red to orange cap and flame-like fibers at the edge of the cap and margins of the gills. 

Crepidotus cinnabarinus shows up in late summer and early fall, and its bright colors make it stand out against fallen branches and rotting trees.

Funguary Day 14: Crepidotus

Its name apparently means 'cracked ear' in Latin. It grows on wood and plant debris, and all species of this mushroom are known to be secondary decomposers of plant matter.
