National Geographic has found a group of bioluminescent fungi, “The mushrooms are part of the genus Mycena, a group that includes about 500 species worldwide. Of these only 33 are known to be bioluminescent—capable of producing light through a chemical reaction.”  The mushrooms were found in the Ribeira Valley Tourist State Park which is São Paulo, Brazil.
