Luminomorpha Scintillusia, named for its light-emitting form and sparkling luminescence, is a bioluminescent fungus in the Luminorialis Aurorae cluster. It features an irregular, convoluted cap with ridges and folds, creamy white and bright yellow hues, and spiny or granular warty projections. The undulating, lobed cap margin lacks a stipe, with fruiting bodies up to 10 cm tall. Gills are obscure, possibly forming pores or ridges within folds. Bioluminescence occurs in the green-blue spectrum (470-530 nm) from cap ridged tissues via a hyphal luciferin-luciferase system. Native to tropical rainforest understories, it thrives on decomposing leaf litter and wood at 0-20°C. Classified in Physalacriaceae, genus Luminomorpha, order Agaricales, it disperses basidiospores passively by wind. Its extensive mycelium drives saprotrophic decomposition and nutrient cycling. With ~100 species, it highlights rainforest biodiversity and ecosystem resilience.
