Foraging: Never eat a wild mushroom on a photo or an app’s word. Many deadly species look like edible ones.
About
Dictyonema discocarpum is a species of lichen-forming fungus in the family Hygrophoraceae. It is a filamentous, blue‑green basidiolichen that grows in thin, shelf‑like mats on tree bark in Bolivian cloud forest. Described in 2013, it is one of three Dictyonema species discovered together in the same Andean reserve and is readily recognized by the tiny, white "pin‑head" discs that speckle the underside of each shelf.
