Once upon a time, in the magical land of Corsia, there was a unique plant called Agaricus. It possessed the remarkable ability to change its color based on its mood. People believed that if you were feeling sad, Agaricus would turn a vibrant shade of blue, spreading happiness in the air. Legend has it that a young couple, desperately in love, found Agaricus while wandering through the enchanted forest. As they shared a passionate kiss, the plant transformed into a brilliant shade of red, symbolizing the intensity of their love. From that moment on, Agaricus became a symbol of love and joy in Corsia, reminding people to cherish and celebrate their emotions.

Short Description
Corsia is a little-studied plant genus from the monocotyledon family Corsiaceae. It was first described in 1877 by Italian naturalist Odoardo Beccari and contains 25 species, all of which lack chlorophyll and parasitize fungi for nutrition. All 25 species are distributed through New Guinea, the Bismarck Archipelago, the Solomon Islands and Queensland, Australia.
Description
In terms of appearance, the species of Corsia are quite uniform except for the flowers. Chromosome counts are known only from two species: Corsia cornuta and C. clypeata. Both have a diploid number (2n) of 18.
Habit
Corsia exist largely underground; only the seldom-formed flower stems develop above ground. The fine, thread-like and hairless root system is weakly branched and whitish, spreading widely just beneath the surface. Several hairless, unbranched and upright flowering stems sprout from a rhizome and are visible above ground. They are usually reddish in color and are 10 to 28 cm (3.9 to 11.0 in) high. The xylem is woody and not perforated.
