Cyathus limbatus
Cyathus limbatus
A species of Cyathus.
Cyathus limbatus, readily recognized by its signature cup-like structure, unfurls with age to display outward-curving edges. Its particular aesthetic is characterized by a light, furrowed exterior that stands in opposition to a darker, unblemished inner surface. Commonly observed growing in close proximity on decaying timber, this species prospers in damp, low-light environments, contributing to the breakdown of organic material.
