Gibellula pulchra

Gibellula pulchra is a species of parasitoid fungus found on arachnids. The species Gibellula pulchra is commonly found around the world. The genus Gibellula was named after Prof. Giuseppe Gibelli. Some researchers have mistaken Gibellula suffulata as Gibellula pulchra though they are different species from the same genus that both prey on arachnids. Specimens of Gibellula pulchra from North America are held in various collections facilities: the Herbarium of the University of Michigan, Herbarium of Cornell University, Mycological Collection of the U.S. Bureau of Plant Industry, Herbarium of the New York Botanical Garden, and Farlow Herbarium....read more on Wikipedia.
