FOTD #105 : split gill! (schizophyllum commune)
the split gill (also gillies) is a pathogenic fungus in the family schizophyllaceae. it often grows on decaying trees & can be spotted all around the world.
the big question : can i bite it?? the answer is complex, but the general consensus is that it is inedible. it absorbs moisture, so it can expand during digestion. some still eat it !!

s. commune description :
"the cream-brown to pale white caps are 1–4 centimetres (3⁄8–1+5⁄8 in) wide with white or greyish hairs along the rims."

A work in progress of my interpretation of Lady Boil of the Goblin Court. I was inspired by raw nature and the common split gill mushroom. I started this the very first time @quiddie mentioned Blemish and Boil (before I even knew the gender of either). My wife encouraged me to post this for @quiddie

A concept I have been playing with.
What if Wild and the Chain meet Champion during AOC? What if afterwards, Champion and Mipha have a daughter? What if TOTK happened to Champion first, Ganon won and the Chain arrived too late to help, but Champ got to tell Wild about his/their daughter? What if Wild was able to save her and bring her to his era?
Only one way to find out…

Golden-eye lichen 》 Teloschistes chrysophthalmus
The dreaded move from hell is finally over and we've been settling in well at the new place. Its been a pleasure to explore the new park thats nearest to me now, and here are a couple of my discoveries! Some cute lil splitgills and a darling golden-eye. I will never not stop to appreciate these alien looking little guys, they're so strange and beautiful. 💛

More expression practice! This time with my mutant-sona, River :)
(If I draw her with characters from Rise, which I would like to do someday, I’ll probably stylize and simplify her a bit more. )

Hello. How r u? :)
Have you spoken about the "schizophyllum commune" yet?
Its a type of fungus I saw here on tumblr but idk which page I got it from. If you spoke about it already then dw.
I heard this fungus (mushroom? Idk the difference) has over 23,000 separate genders (mating types) which I think is hella neat :)
Anyway hope you have a great day. I love ur blog so much <3
hey !! i'm okey, thanks for asking, & i hope you're alright, too :-)
i don't believe i've spoken about them, yet, but they're honestly a fascinating species.
so, first off, this fungus does produce mushrooms, so you can call it either !! "mushroom" is the term for the fleshy, spore-bearing fruit body of a fungus.
about the mating types - yes !! it has 23 328 distinct mating types (different from genders ; *slightly* different to sexes, but more similar). of these types, most are compatible with each other !!
another interesting fact is that they are thought to be the cause of a few fungal infections - specifically those affecting the lungs. on a few occasions, they have also caused allergic reactions & sinusitis.
schizophyllum is derived from the greek word schíza meaning "split", which is also mentioned in it's common name, split gill.
i'll be happy to post a FOTD about it, soon :-)

Split gill fungus! 》 Schizophyllum commune
Look what I found in the dog park at my complex!
I'd seen them before from a distance but didn't observe them very closely. Yesterday I chose to give them a look and wow! They're so beautiful! I've never seen anything quite like them. And what a pleasent surprise when I looked underneath! Their hymenium is gorgeous with a very unique gill formation.
"Some fungi have tens of thousands of mating types, approximately equivalent to our sexes (the record holder is the split gill fungus, Schizophyllum commune, which has more than twenty-three thousand mating types, each of which is sexually compatible with nearly every one of the others)." - Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake (pg. 36)
"In order for two hypae to mate, the gene sequence at each of these loci must be different. Most species have at least two possible sequence options, or alleles, for each locus. . . The Split Gill Fungus has more than 300 alleles at the A locus and more than 90 at the B locus, a diversity that provides for 23,328 different combinations of A and B alleles, or over 23,000 different mating types! Each of these spores is compatible with over 98% of other Split Gill primary mycelia in the world, a breeding capacity that underlies the global distribution of this common mushroom." - Radical Mycology by Peter McCoy (pg. 13)
