DEVIL'S CIGAR

[CONCURRENT RESOLUTION.]
WHEREAS, The State of Texas recognizes a variety of
Specimens symbolizing great diversity;
WHEREAS, the armadillo, the bluebonnet, and the lightning whelk
Are just some examples of unparalleled beauty;
WHEREAS, the designation of the Devil's Cigar as the
Official State Fungus of Texas would
PROVIDE this rare mycological inhabitant with
Fitting and suitable recognition;
WHEREAS, known to scientists as Chorioactis geaster,
features a long, tapering,
DARK-BROWN apothecium, which sometimes reaches
a height of up to four inches; and
WHEREAS, when ready, this distinctive fungus
splits open with an audible hiss,
FILLING the air with a cloud of spores that waft away
to help maintain a future of life for the species;
WHEREAS, it makes its home on decaying hardwood stumps
and exposed roots in Central and North Texas
WHEREAS, it is as striking as the Lone Star State
Making it a fitting symbol, therefore
BE IT RESOLVED, we hereby designate the Devil's Cigar
Fungus as the Official State Fungus of Texas.
