Aurora Shrooma, named from Latin 'aurora' (dawn) and 'shrooma' (shroom), is a luminescent fungus with clusters of translucent, gelatinous caps featuring wavy margins and fine gills radiating from a thick, semi-transparent stipe. Caps range amber to honey, exhibiting a blue-green glow near gill edges. Fruiting bodies reach 0-15 cm height and weigh 5-25 g. Bioluminescence occurs via a luciferin-luciferase reaction emitting 450-495 nm light, visible on tropical forest floors. Belonging to genus Aurora, order Agaricales, 'Pyroglow Ignis' cluster, it decomposes wood and leaf litter saprobically. Slow swaying caps aid spore dispersal by air and insects. Its mycelium pervades humus soil, breaking polymers and supporting symbiosis. With ~100 species in its cluster, it’s vulnerable due to habitat sensitivity within 5-25°C.
