Planet Earth fungi
    #7623280 - 11/11/07 07:43 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

Did anyone else notice the striking similarities between the cordyceps fungi at 1:33 and our most-loved P.cubensis? Obviously not the same, but I thought that their similar shape and structure were worth noting.



On a side note, I think that Sigourney Weaver is a more appropriate narrator. Her voice is much more effective and more full of emotion than the Brit's. Maybe this is because I watched Planet Earth the first time while tripping at my home in Illinois. But I still like Sigourney better.

the fungus I'm noting, if you can't figure it out, starts at about -0:30

Similarities? Striking similarities? Huh?

Also, David Attenborough is a better narrator than all Sigourneys in the world combined.

ok shoot me. I was really referring more to the visual similarities. The fruiting bodies emerging from the grasshopper look like cubes.

I was simply sharing a little stoned moment with everyone.

"look dudes, those look exactly like the ones growing in the corner!"

I guess I should've have looked up the british narrator before I opened my cyber mouth. Sorry if I offended anyone. I think I just bonded with the female voice when I was tripping watching pole-to-pole.
:grin:

Genus Cordyceps are entomopathogenic ascomycetes. How exactly are they "strikingly similar" to genus Psilocybe?

Man, even the grumpy people are cool at the shroomery.

Why can't everyone be cool in real life?
