Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Chitiniphilus

👉 Chitiniphilus is a type of fungus that grows in marine environments, specifically on the surface of dead plant material, such as decaying wood or leaves. Its cells contain a complex network of chitin, which is a polymer composed of chains of glucose and other organic molecules. This structure allows it to form tough and durable structures, including the walls of its fungal hyphae and the outer layers of its mycelium.
