Meriominulla

Meriominulla is a genus of fungi belonging to the family Inocybaceae. These fungi are typically small to medium-sized and are characterized by their tough, fibrous texture. They are commonly found in woodland habitats, growing on soil or decaying wood. The cap of meriominulla species can range in color from brown to yellowish-brown and often has a somewhat scaly surface. The gills are usually adnexed or sinuate and may be brownish or grayish.

The spores of meriominulla are typically smooth or finely echinulate and are often brown in mass. Microscopic examination is usually required for accurate identification of species within this genus, as many of them are morphologically similar. Some species of meriominulla are known to be mycorrhizal, forming symbiotic relationships with trees, while others are saprobic, decomposing organic matter. Research into the ecological roles and biochemical properties of meriominulla species is ongoing. Their distribution is widespread across various temperate regions.
