👉 Leucophantes is a type of fungus that produces its spores in the soil, typically in a coniferous forest or under acidic conditions. This species is known for producing large amounts of spores and can be found growing on the surface of dead wood or decaying plant material. It is an important part of the ecosystem as it plays a crucial role in nutrient cycling by releasing its spores into the soil, which then settle down to form new fungi.
