My first thought was an old 1960's Japanese movie called "The Island of the Mushroom People" but in it the people ate the mushrooms and turned into mushrooms. Also the X-files episode where Mulder and Sculley are being digested by mushrooms underground and hallucinating.

    Would love to see you explore India's flora especially the northeastern hills and the Western Ghats both with high species richness with the southern regions of the ghats in Kerala and Tamil Nadu essentially being an biogeographical island and the home of Seasonal Rainforests with a high level of endemism. Before the region was degraded by humans the plains on the foothills of the ghats were covered in lofty mixed dipterocarp forests upto 800m after which it transitioned into cullenia dominated montane and submontane forests with the highest elevations greater than 1800m being home to cloud forest - grassland mosaics known locally as sholas, the lower swampy valleys had myristica swamps and the high elevation mountain tops had peat Bogs though thier extent is heavily reduced.

    Split gill kinda sucks till you find one the size of your palm that grew out in all directions instead of one side. Then they are amazing. Emerald ash bore came through and wiped-out half of all trees in the forest. Giant abnormal flushes happened for years till the twigs and brush was consumed. Then G. sessile went from infrequent to covering ash logs for 20 feet in an orange plate of calving bracts and stalks. Semi sessile really. Especially when they come out of holes in rotten stumps like red lacquer snakes.

    Cordyceps, and Amanita Fulva were 2 of my medicines, you ferment them like hops, adding sugar, water, yeast, and a source of amino acids.
