Gundravian hookspores, an extremely infectious fungus.
Fungus (plural form: fungi) was a group of organisms which included lichen, kahel cave fungus, and marsh fungi, which grew on the planets Hoth, Mustafar, and Dagobah respectively.[2] The planet Narq had entire forests of blue fungi.[3] Some fungi, like the Wirutid, were both ambulatory and sentient.[4] Some types of fungi were used to make wine as a substitute for fermented fruit or other vegetation with a rising agent such as yeast. According to the famous liquor trader Derla Pidys, she had tasted some "truly remarkable" fungal wines.[5] The small creature known as the Blismal ate fungus.[6]
