Narcissea Patouillardii
''Narcissea'' is a genus of fungi in the family Psathyrellaceae. Taxonomy The ''Narcissea'' genus was created in 2020 by the German mycologists Dieter Wächter & Andreas Melzer when the ''Psathyrellaceae'' family was subdivided based on phylogenetic analysis. Two members of the ''Coprinopsis'' genus were reclassified as ''Narcissea''. A study in 2021 by mycologist Pietro Voto placed a third species, ''Coprinopsis cardiaspora'' in this genus. The type species, '' Narcissea patouillardii'' was previously classified as ''Coprinopsis patouillardii.'' Etymology This genus is named after the French mycologist Narcisse Théophile Patouillard Narcisse Théophile Patouillard (2 July 1854 – 30 March 1926) was a French pharmacist and mycologist.

Fungi
A fungus ( : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a kingdom, separately from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which by one traditional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related organisms, named the ''Eumycota'' (''t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
