Extract from Wikipedia article: Multiclavula vernalis is a species of clavarioid fungus in the family Clavulinaceae. It was originally named as a species of Clavaria in 1822 by Lewis David de Schweinitz. Ronald H. Petersen transferred it to Multiclavula in 1967.
Multiclavula vernalis is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Clavulinaceae. It is characterized by its small, club-shaped or clavate fruiting bodies that are typically yellow to orange in color. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Multiclavula vernalis has been found growing on mosses and other non-vascular plants in moist, shaded areas, often in association with coniferous trees. The fungus is typically fruiting in spring and early summer, hence its specific epithet "vernalis", meaning "of the spring".
Observations of Multiclavula vernalis in Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia revealed its presence in the region. On May 27, 2017, the fungus was found on a mushroom show in the Botanic Gardens of Komarov Botanical Institute, Saint Petersburg, Russia. The clavarioid fungus was observed growing on other mushrooms, showcasing its unique characteristics. Further observations on the same day confirmed the presence of Multiclavula vernalis, with multiple sightings of clavarioid mushrooms in the same location. These findings suggest that Multiclavula vernalis is present and thriving in the region, particularly in areas with suitable hosts for the fungus to grow on. The specific habitat and conditions of the Botanic Gardens may be conducive to the growth and development of this species.
