   What is the difference between microfungi and macrofungi?

   • Microfungi are a paraphyletic group, distinguished from macrofungi only by the absence of a large, multicellular fruiting body. They are ubiquitous in all terrestrial and freshwater and marine environments, and grow in plants, soil, water, insects, cattle rumens, hair, and skin.

   How do microfungi spread?

   • Most of the fungal body consists of microscopic threads, called hyphae, extending through the substrate in which it grows. The mycelia of microfungi produce spores that are carried by the air, spreading the fungus. [citation needed] Many microfungi species are benign, existing as soil saprotrophs, for example, largely unobserved by humans.
