Spinellus fusiger , also known as helmet mold , is a widespread yoke fungus of the order Mucorales .
The fruiting bodies are radiating, transparent hairy with a black head. The hyphae that carry the sporangium are simple, and they carry the filaments that the zygospores are on. It grows parasitically, especially on helmets . It grows through her hat, and the sporangia eventually spread through wind and weather. Its sporangia contain micro- conidia , one of which, due to its homothallism, is sufficient to form a new mycelium .
In 1818 it was first described by Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg under the name Mucor rhombosporus . After several renaming, the current name came from Philippe Édouard Léon Van Tieghem in 1875.
