Its cap, meanwhile, also ranges in size over a broad range. At 21 °C, luminescence persists for about 3 days, and becomes undetectable to the naked eyes about 72 hours after primordium initiation.

During our studies on the genus Mycena The tell-tale characteristics of this group include a white spore print, a small conical or bell-shaped cap, and a thin stem that is not tough or wiry. The optimum temperature for the growth of mycelia is 27 °C (81 °F), while the optimum for the growth of primordia is 21 °C (70 °F). 0000002148 00000 n 0000006155 00000 n Mycena is a large genus of small saprotrophic mushrooms that are rarely more than a few centimeters in width. binomial Mycena chlorophos (Berk. Mycena haematopus, commonly known as the bleeding fairy helmet, the burgundydrop bonnet, or the bleeding Mycena, is a species of fungus in the family Mycenaceae, of the order Agaricales.It is widespread and common in Europe and North America, and has also been collected in Japan and Venezuela. A few species, like Mycena leaiana, are brightly colored, but many are gray, brown, or whitish. Most have a translucent and striate cap, which rarely has an incurved margin. Some species, like Mycena haematopus, exude a latex when the stem is broken, and many species have a chlorine-like o… 0000052687 00000 n Maximum luminescence occurs at 27 °C, and about 25–39 hours after the primordia begin to form, when the cap has fully expanded. Mycena chlorophos is a bioluminescent species that is distributed in tropical climates, especially in Southeastern Asia, and the Pacific. are brightly luminescent, some like M. haematopus (Pers.)
