Extract from Wikipedia article: Roridomyces roridus, commonly known as the dripping bonnet or the slippery mycena, is a species of agaric fungus in the family Mycenaceae. It is whitish or dirty yellow in color, with a broad convex cap 5–15 mm (0.2–0.6 in) in diameter. The stipe is covered with a thick, slippery slime layer. This species can be bioluminescent, and is one of the several causative species of foxfire.
Roridomyces roridus is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Mycenaceae. It is characterized by its small to medium-sized fruiting bodies, which are typically 1-4 cm in height and have a bell-shaped or conical cap that is often wrinkled or veined. The cap is usually yellowish-brown to brown in color, while the stem is slender and white to pale brown. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Roridomyces roridus has been found growing in moist environments, such as near streams, rivers, and lakes, as well as in wet meadows and forests. It typically fruits from late summer to early autumn, often in association with mosses, algae, or other aquatic plants.
