Luminis Fungiferous, a rare bioluminescent fungus endemic to tropical forest floors, features infundibuliform caps with wavy translucent margins and a reticulate cap pattern. Fruiting bodies reach 0–15 cm in height with robust translucent stems capable of subtle growth-based movement. Decurrent, finely spaced gills enhance spore dispersal. Bioluminescence, emitted in the 470-530 nm blue-green range, arises from luciferin-luciferase activity visible as luminous dots on caps and stems. Thriving in 10-20°C moist, decomposing organic substrates, it belongs to Agaricales, Omphalotaceae, genus within the Noctiluca Grove cluster. Spore dispersal occurs via basidiospore discharge aided by gravity and air currents. Its subterranean mycelium decomposes lignocellulosic material, supporting nutrient cycling and nocturnal forest floor ecology.
