Luminomycota Auroraflora, named for its light-emitting, flower-like dawn glow, is a bioluminescent fungal species in the Noctiluca Grove cluster. It features dense clusters of pleurotoid fruiting bodies with lilac-violet undulate caps and decurrent gills along a thick stipe, measuring 15-40 cm tall and weighing 50-150 g. The surface shows crystalline-like textures. Bioluminescence emits blue-green light (470-530 nm) via a luciferin-luciferase system in gills and stipe, aiding spore dispersal at 0-10°C. Endemic to temperate rainforests, it saprotrophically decomposes lignin-rich hardwood, supporting nutrient recycling. Taxonomically, it belongs to Mycenaceae, genus Luminomycota, order Agaricales. Wind disperses spores from exposed gills, while its extensive mycelium enhances forest soil health. One of 20 genus species, it holds key ecological and conservation value.
