edible mushrooms Cyttaria espinosae) DihueÃ±e growing on a tree

Cyttaria espinosae, known as DihueÃ±e mushrooms, grow in clusters on a tree trunk. These round, bulbous fungi exhibit a mix of yellow, orange, and creamy-white hues with bumpy textures. Their unique appearance resembles small spheres packed closely together, contrasting with the tree's rough, dark bark. Found primarily in the forests of Chile and Argentina, they are valued for their edible properties and are often harvested in the southern hemisphere's spring and summer.
