Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on September 9, 2012.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that early mycologists classified species from the class Myxogastria (random species pictured) as "fungus animals"?

Should this page link to the ground breaking black-and-white film from Wardour Films Ltd. / British Instructional Film?

Monocellular?

edit

The article states:

Although they are monocellular, they can reach immense widths and weights: in extreme cases they can be up to 1 metre across and weigh up to 20 kilograms (44 lb)

This seems to suggest that there are cells that weigh 20 kg and measure 1 metre in diameter. Is this true or does the introduction in fact need to be reworded? LookingGlass (talk) 14:15, 1 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Agree. How big are the individuals? Are they distinguishable in the mass? 74.127.201.155 (talk) 09:07, 20 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Nomenclature

edit

Is there a reason for why the nomenclature of the Myxogastria (or should I say Myxomycetes), including many of its subtaxa, on Wikipedia does not follow the nomenclature apparently used in the literature and that used by Index Fungorum? 27.96.217.212 (talk) 10:37, 29 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
