Mycena Chlorophamus growing in the Malaleuca Wetlands.  After the rain, “colonies of these beautiful mushrooms appear on rotting logs and other dark, damp places.  At night, they glow with an ethereal, surreal green-blue light, like fairy lanterns.  It is produced by a chemical reaction between two substances, luciferin and luciferase.”  Tilse, G., (1995), Characters, Covers  Cliffs, Amphion Press: Brisbane, p. 77.
