Meet a fun guy*.
Pithomyces chartartum.
Actually, it’s more his (her?) spores. Which contain a toxin which cause facial eczema in sheep. Fun eh?
I’ve been spending the last 3 weeks studying this wee guy in the lab.
I though it was quite neat that he too has polka dots.
You can almost see the pink.
*Get it? Fungi? Haha maggi cracks me up.
