The necropolis consists of hypogeous dug into the tufa rock, used until Roman times. |
We find a great degree of biodiversity among the microfauna and microflora in their hypogeous systems, and in the epigeous macroflora. |
At first, the hypogeous ecosystem was considered to be related to biological factors, and the type of lignin appeared to be the most basic and central. |
Truffles are hypogeous ascomycetes and ectomycorrhizal fungi with unique organoleptic properties. |
These true mycorrhizae include such macro-fungi as the toadstools and the hypogeous truffles and tuckahoes. |
We collected two ophiocordycipitaceous species previously unknown in Taiwan: one emerged from hypogeous fruiting bodies of an Elaphomyces fungus and the other was associated with dragonflies. |
