Coprinellus radians | February 23 2025 | Buket Alue Puteh, Aceh, Indonesia |

Have you ever seen small, bright brown mushrooms that usually grow on rotting wood, dry leaves and even organic materials? I guess if you are a fan of the world of mushrooms then the portrait I share this time will be familiar to you, but on the other hand, if you have never seen this mushroom in person, then this post is for you.
yeah this is the Coprinellus radians mushroom which is a species of mushroom with extraordinary uniqueness, this mushroom is known because it is able to emit natural light in dark environments, I still remember the incident some time ago when I was fishing in river waters in the dark of night, from a distance I saw lots of lights appearing which were very beautiful, actually I felt a little surprised by this strange appearance, I went to make sure to get rid of my worries and it turned out I saw a pile of mushrooms that had bloomed.
From that incident I realized that the Coprinellus radians mushroom is one of the mushrooms that is included in the bioluminescent group, so every time I find this mushroom in the forest, the night staking incident always rings in my head, and I found this mushroom a few days ago while walking in the forest at around 16.00 and they had not yet bloomed, because of their unique appearance I took several photos to share with all of you.
