Podoserpula miranda is a species of fungus in the family Amylocorticiaceae. Found in New Caledonia, it was first provisionally described in 2009,[1] but officially published in 2013.[2] It's commonly called the Barbie pagoda fungus[3] due to its pale pink color and multi-tiered appearance. The species epithet miranda means 'wonderful' in Latin.[3]
It grows in the soil and is associated with Arillastrum gummiferum.[4]
