Glowcera Lumina, from Latin glow (shine) and cera (wax), is a rare bioluminescent fungal species of genus Aetherium (family Aetheriaceae, order Agaricales). It has fleshy, convex to slightly depressed caps (5-25 cm diameter) with textured surfaces bearing pores and granules. Under darkness, caps emit blue-green bioluminescence (470-530 nm) around margins and gill edges, aiding nocturnal spore dispersal. The stout, cylindrical stipe with faint striations supports the fruiting body in temperate forests. Saprotrophic on decaying hardwood, it decomposes lignin and cellulose, contributing to nutrient cycling and soil health. Found in 5-25°C, it disperses spores via wind and is part of the stable cluster Aetherium Arborescens, maintaining ecological balance as a specialized decomposer.
