👉 Hansfordia is a genus of fungi in the family Fungi, commonly known as the fungi that are sometimes referred to as "fungi" because they have a complex and multifaceted life cycle involving the production of spores. These spores are dispersed by wind or water, allowing them to travel long distances in the environment before reproducing with new spores. Hansfordia is characterized by its distinct tubular shape, which allows for efficient dispersal and survival under harsh conditions.
