In the UK there have recently been rare mushrooms observed for the first time in living memory.
Wow weird, I haven't heard anything about that? Any links for me to check out?
are in fact some of the largest living organisms on the planet.
I KNOW!!! It's freakin awesome, big mycelial brain tissue of the planet. I want to plug myself into it someday like Bran from GoT. :P
:"Big mycelial brain tissue of the planet" Now you're talking my friend :D
I've been looking for the same article I read but I can't find it as I read it in countrylife in the hairdressers! But whilst looking I've found some more really interesting ones. Especially when you take into consideration that in terms of the natural world the UK is one of the most mapped and logged places in the world.
1)Recorded just once before: Here
2)Really interesting new species in the UK Here
3V rare UK truffle Here
There are actually a fair few brand new species popping all over the world, really interesting subject.
