What (who) is carnivorous$11538$ - definition

FUNGUS WHICH TRAPS AND EATS TINY ANIMALS
Carnivorous fungi; Carnivorous mushrooms; Predaceous fungi; Predaceous fungus

Predatory dinoflagellate         
  •  ''[[Ceratium furca]]''
  •  ''[[Oxyrrhis marina]]''
Carnivorous algae; Carnivorous alga; Predatory alga; Carnivorous protist
Predatory dinoflagellates are predatory heterotrophic or mixotrophic alveolates that derive some or most of their nutrients from digesting other organisms. About one half of dinoflagellates lack photosynthetic pigments and specialize in consuming other eukaryotic cells, and even photosynthetic forms are often predatory.
Carnivorous plant         
  • Cultivated ''[[Nepenthes rajah]]'' and a few other species.
  • ''[[Aldrovanda vesiculosa]]''
  • ''[[Byblis liniflora]]''
  • ''Drosera capensis'' responding to captured prey. This scene is about 4 hours in real-time.
  • Modelling carnivory in plants: gross photosynthesis, respiration and net photosynthesis as a function of the plant's investment in carnivorous adaptations. Non-zero optimum carnivory occurs in brightly lit habitats with very limiting soil nutrients.
  • Modelling carnivory in plants: gross photosynthesis, respiration and net photosynthesis as a function of the plant's investment in carnivorous adaptations. An optimum carnivory of zero occurs in poorly lit habitats with abundant soil nutrients.
  • The traps of ''[[Catopsis berteroniana]]'' are unlikely to have descended from a hairy leaf or sepal.
  • ''[[Cephalotus follicularis]]''
  • ''[[Darlingtonia californica]]'': note the small entrance to the trap underneath the swollen "balloon" and the colourless patches that confuse prey trapped inside.
  • ''Drosera'' glandular hair

Carnivorous plants are plants that derive some or most of their nutrients from trapping and consuming animals or protozoans, typically insects and other arthropods. Carnivorous plants still generate some of their energy from photosynthesis.

Carnivorous fungus

Carnivorous fungi or predaceous fungi are fungi that derive some or most of their nutrients from trapping and eating microscopic or other minute animals. More than 200 species have been described, belonging to the phyla Ascomycota, Mucoromycotina, and Basidiomycota. They usually live in soil and many species trap or stun nematodes (nematophagous fungus), while others attack amoebae or collembola.

Fungi that grow on the epidermis, hair, skin, nails, scales or feathers of living or dead animals are considered to be dermatophytes rather than carnivores. Similarly, fungi in orifices and the digestive tract of animals are not carnivorous, and neither are internal pathogens. Neither are insect pathogens that stun and colonize insects normally labelled carnivorous if the fungal thallus is mainly in the insect as does Cordyceps, or if it clings to the insect like the Laboulbeniales. All of these are examples of parasitism or scavenging.

Two basic trapping mechanisms have been observed in carnivorous fungi that are predatory on nematodes:

  • constricting rings (active traps)
  • adhesive structures (passive traps)

Sequencing of ribosomal DNA has shown that these trap types occur in separate fungus lineages, an example of convergent evolution.
