Description

Cordyceps sinesnsis, or rather Ophiocordyceps sinensis – as this is the scientific name of the species since 2007, also known as caterpillar fungus or simply cordyceps, is a unique species of a fungus that naturally grows on insects, particularly on larvae of ghost moths. During the warm months is grows like any fungus, however in the winter the larvae of certain moth species become its host. To survive, the fungus kills and then mummifies the insect, and feeds on it. Cordyceps is naturally present in Tibet and Nepal at altitudes between three and five thousand metres above sea level. Cordyceps sinesnsis fruiting body is valued as an herbal remedy in traditional Chinese medicine.
