👉 Symplectoscyphus is a genus of fungi in the family Ascomycota, commonly known as the orchid fungus or orchid spore fungus. These fungi produce spores that are used by the orchids to reproduce and spread their population. They are characterized by their large, round, and often translucent fruit bodies with intricate patterns and structures. The genus is named after the Greek word "sykhos," meaning "spore" in Ancient Greek.
