So maybe slightly off topic but came across this article from The Telegraph and thought some of you might find it interesting. 

50 million year old mushroom found trapped in amber

edit:  :foreheadslap:  just noticed there is a "News Service" sub-forum ...someone lemme know if I should move this.

That's neat! I wonder how the DNA holds up in amber after all that time. I image it would just rot encapsulated inside of tree sap. :shrug:

Cool article but it doesn't actually say anything about the mushroom being extinct. I posit Tulostoma sp.
