I swear this fungus has the coolest name: Xylaria hypoxylon. Sounds like an action movie villain or something. Also known as the candle snuff fungus, I really liked the way this one looked like antlers. Princess Mononoke vibes 🦌🍄‍🟫 🖤🤍 🍄📷 📸🎞 🌱🌿 🟢 🍄 📷 - ThreadSky

I haven’t seen anything like this. Where does it grow?

I'm not sure how widespread they are in a global sense, but I imagine they grow in a lot of places. They are pretty abundant in late fall and winter in the PNW on decaying logs 🪵🍄

Okay, I live in the PNW so I can go in search for them. Thank you for the information
