Ancestor:Descendants:

The boogieshroom split from the stalkshroom. It lives inside of the graveyard tree and dead bodies infected with graveyard tree spores, though it can live on dead bodies that aren't infected with graveyard tree spores. The ways it has adapted include becoming bigger, developing bitter-tasting chemicals that keep most predators away, and bright colors to warn predators not to eat it; though a few creatures do eat it such as norats and purpplage worms. It still reproduces the same way its ancestor did, but with an extra twist: a passing animal touches some spores, then they will fall to the ground and grow. The stalk will also be ragged off and will develop into a new boogieshroom. The twist is that if the animal dies from eating the "fruit" of the graveyard tree, the spores will quickly grow inside the body. It also can grow if the animal dies from any cause before digesting the spores, which will quickly grow inside the body. The boogieshroom is one factor that keeps the graveyard tree population stable.
