From the Coquimbo Region to the Antarctic and from the coast to the mountains, in Chile we can find a diversity of flora, fauna and funga which are very privileged in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among all this diversity, some mushrooms stand out as the most characteristic of our country in different areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mycena cyanocephala, from central Chile to Patagonia in the coastal sclerophyllous forest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entoloma necopinatum, very rare, seen between Biob\u00edo and Los Lagos, also found in Chilo\u00e9.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Amanita Muscaria, one of the most famous mushrooms in the world, introduced in Chile and now seen in some areas of Biob\u00edo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cortinarius magellanicus, from the Maule area to Magallanes, with a characteristic pink and small size.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grifola gargal, between the areas of Biob\u00edo and La Araucan\u00eda, grows on branches and stems of Nothofagus trees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cyptotrama hygrocyboides, between Fray Jorge and the Maule area, grows on dead trunks in shady places.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Atheniella adonis, in the southern zone of Chile up to Patagonia, it is not autochthonous to our country.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anthracophyllum discolor, grows from Coquimbo to Biob\u00edo, it is native to Chile and Argentina.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fungi season in Chile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/bkt-chile-travel\/2023\/05\/697a270d-entoloma-necopinatum-1024x930.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38874\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">An Entoloma necopinatum can be mistaken for plants because of its greenness.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CUBSX_QJG9F\/\">@giulifungi<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The autumn season is very special for this kingdom, as it gives us incredible experiences such as exploring with a magnifying glass what is growing silently. It is <strong>the best time to see trails with the presence of Amanitas Muscaria, Clavaria Zollingeri or Cortinarius Magellanicus<\/strong>, which impress with their bright colors and textures. It is also a particularly good time to stop and observe with a magnifying glass to appreciate that there are not one or two specimens, but hundreds that populate the ground, branches, and trunks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to learn more about the experiences around this kingdom, in Los R\u00edos Region you can discover this world through guided expeditions and events that bring scientific and ancestral knowledge and its different expressions.

Look at the guides and explore together with someone who is knowledgeable. Just as you cannot harvest any plant, the same goes for fungi. It is important to know how to differentiate a potential poisonous fungus.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When harvesting a medicinal or edible one, we recommend you go out with baskets because in that way, you can release the spores that fall through the spaces in the basket.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make a clean cut with a knife because it generates less damage to the organism.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not step on mushrooms. Keep the forest as intact as possible. Use trails. Do not remove logs or decaying trees that are sources of life for fungi.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always leave half of the mushroom that is growing. These play the role of reproduction, so it is important to let them mature.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fungi Kingdom has a vital importance for the ecosystem.
