Common name: Cantharellus jebbi

General information

Cantharellus jebbi, commonly known as Jebb's chanterelle, is a species of chanterelle mushroom that is not typically found in the reefkeeping hobby. This species is part of the Fungi kingdom and is not relevant to saltwater aquariums as it is a terrestrial organism. Chanterelle mushrooms are known for their distinctive shape and coloration, as well as their culinary value, but they do not play a role in the aquatic environments that reefkeeping hobbyists create and maintain.

For those interested in the natural world, Cantharellus jebbi is an interesting species due to its ecological role in forest ecosystems and its symbiotic relationships with trees, where it forms mycorrhizal associations. However, this information is outside the scope of saltwater aquarium keeping.

Habitat

Cantharellus jebbi is typically found in terrestrial environments, often in damp, forested areas where it forms symbiotic relationships with the roots of trees. This species is not adapted to aquatic life and therefore is not encountered in marine or reef habitats.
