Some cool mushrooms

Gyroporus cyanescens, commonly known as the bluing bolete or the cornflower bolete. If damaged, its inside turns blue - the reaction results from the oxidation of a chemical called gyrocyanin.

Mycena subcyanocephala - the smallest mushroom in the world with its buttons being about 1 mm tall. It has been observed a total of 8 times in the tropical forests of Taiwan.

This is a fungus called Xylaria Polymorpha, more commonly referred to as Dead man's fingers. It commonly grows in forested areas at the base of rotting trees, generally creating forms like the image above.
