Lasiobolus lasioboloides is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Ascodesmidaceae. [1] It grows on the dung of sheep. [2]
Sordaria macrospora is a species of coprophilous (dung-colonizing) fungus. It is one of several fungal model organisms in biology, e.g. the model of fruiting body development in Ascomycetes. It is a homothallic, self-fertile organism.
The Sporormiaceae are a family of fungi in the order Pleosporales. Taxa have a cosmopolitan distribution and are saprobic on dung (coprophilous) and rotting vegetation.
The Pyxidiophorales are an order of fungi in the class Laboulbeniomycetes. The order was created in 2001 to contain the single family Pyxidiophoraceae, circumscribed in 1971. The Pyxidiophoraceae are mostly coprophilous fungi that associate with mites and other arthropods. The type genus, Pyxidiophora, the largest genus of the family, has about 20 species.
Coprophilous fungi are a type of saprobic fungi that grow on animal dung. The hardy spores of coprophilous species are unwittingly consumed by herbivores from vegetation, and are excreted along with the plant matter. The fungi then flourish in the feces, before releasing their spores to the surrounding area.
Coprinellus curtus is a species of mushroom in the family Psathyrellaceae. It was first described as Coprinus curtus by Károly Kalchbrenner in 1876 before being transferred to the genus Coprinellus in 2001.
Tulosesus heterosetulosus is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae.
Lasiobolus is a genus of fungi in the family Ascodesmidaceae.
Podospora appendiculata is a coprophilous fungus that is most commonly found in the dung of lagomorphs, such as hares and rabbits, in temperate to warm climates. A member of the division Ascomycota, P. appendiculata is characterized by ovoid, hair-studded perithecia which can bear a distinctive violaceous colouring and peridia which are coriaceous, or leathery, in texture. Podospora appendiculata has been shown to produce three compounds with antimicrobial properties.
Ascobolus immersus is a species of fungus belonging to the family Ascobolaceae.
Lasiobolus cuniculi is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Ascodesmidaceae. It is known to grow on the dung of sheep, goats and donkeys.
Podospora decipiens is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Podosporaceae. It is especially common on the islands around Greece, where it grows on the dung of sheep, goats and donkeys.
Podospora macrodecipiens is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Podosporaceae. It was discovered in Antiparos in Greece, where it was found growing on sheep dung.
Podospora pleiospora is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Podosporaceae. It is especially common on the islands around Greece, where it grows on the dung of goats and sheep.
Schizothecium miniglutinans is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Lasiosphaeriaceae. It is known to grow in the dung of goats and possibly on that of sheep.
Schizothecium tetrasporum is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Lasiosphaeriaceae. It is known to grow in the dung of goats and rabbits.
Schizothecium vesticola is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Lasiosphaeriaceae. In Greece, it is known to grow in the dung of goats and possibly on that of sheep, goats and donkeys. In Iceland, it has been reported from the dung of sheep, goose and horse.
Coprinopsis pseudoradiata is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae. It grows on the dung of sheep.
Coprinopsis stercorea is a species of coprophilous fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae. It grows on the dung of sheep, goats and donkeys.
