Panorchis
Panorchis is a genus of fungi belonging to the class Sordariomycetes. These fungi are typically found in soil and decaying organic matter, often in tropical and subtropical regions. The genus is characterized by its ascomata, which are flask-shaped structures that contain the spores. These ascomata are usually dark in color and can be solitary or clustered. The conidia, or asexual spores, of Panorchis are hyaline and have a distinctive shape, often described as fusiform or clavate.
Research on Panorchis has primarily focused on its taxonomic classification and its role in decomposition processes
