I found this fungy that looks as cordyceps in the peruvian rainforest

Hi, ive read cordyceps only grows in hymalaya. Any idea whats the name of this fungy? It doenst taste good.

Hi Ronaldo,

1) I learned a bit more at this wiki link about cordyceps.  Cordyceps is a genus that has 600ish species that are parasitic to insects or aryhropods or fungi or amphibians.   One particular species from the Himalayas is very famous and is a spectacular rabbit hole to chase on its own.

2) This last year, we watched a wonderful presentation from Daniel Winkler showing different cordyceps from around the world including Latin America rainforests.  He also discussed groups developing production systems to help save the wild cordyceps from being over harvested in Bhutan and providing local income.

3) Another rabbit hole to fall into:
Search for "cordyceps zombie ants" and "cordyceps zombie flies".

4) Warning: DO NOT taste test wild fungi without appropriate training.  There are some species that can kill you even on a taste sample size.  DO find a good local mentor to teach you how to identify mushrooms correctly (books and pictures are not enough): You will learn many other things to check before you do a taste test with a found fungi.
