Ascobolus denudatus is a species of apothecial fungus belonging to the family Ascobolaceae.

This is an uncommon European species appearing as tiny yellow discs up to 1 mm across on rotting straw. It can be encountered at any time of year but is mainly seen from summer to early autumn.

Ammonia fungi are fungi that develop fruit bodies exclusively or relatively abundantly on soil that has had ammonia or other nitrogen-containing materials added. The nitrogen materials react as bases by themselves, or after decomposition. The addition of ammonia or urea causes numerous chemical and biological changes, for examples, the pH of soil litter is increased to 8–10; the high alkaline conditions interrupts the process of nutrient recycling. The mechanisms of colonization, establishment, and occurrence of fruiting bodies of ammonia fungi has been researched in the field and the laboratory.

In molecular biology, methylation induced premeiotically (MIP) is a process by which cytosines within repeated DNA sequences are de novo methylated prior to the sexual cycle. This process was first described in the ascomycete Ascobolus immersens. MIP is dependent upon the gene masc1 which encodes a cytosine methyltransferase-like protein. At least one major function of the process appears to be genome defense. Related functions have been found in other fungi, including Neurospora and Aspergillus species.

Gastrolactarius is a genus of gasteroid fungi in the family Russulaceae. Although currently valid, this taxon is very likely a synonym of Lactarius.

Chilocarpus conspicuus is a plant in the genus Chilocarpus, in the family Apocynaceae. It is native to Borneo. The only information known about this species is from a collection from Mt Kinabalu, Brunei and two collections from Sarawak. There are several similar species that are alike in flower and without examining the distinctive fruit of this species, a specimen may be mistaken for Chilocarpus denudatus. It is an accepted species, first described by Steenis and originally published in Blumea 19: 162 1971.

Leucocoprinus straminellus is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. Like other Leucocoprinus species it may have originated in a tropical climate but now finds a home in plant pots, greenhouses and compost piles in many countries. Leucocoprinus straminellus is described as being similar to the more commonly known Leucocoprinus birnbaumii but it is smaller and a lighter shade of yellow with smaller spores that lack a germ pore. It is also described as being superficially similar to Leucocoprinus fragilissimus but slightly more robust with flesh that is less translucent.
