Definition
A plant or fungus that grows on or feeds on dung or fecal matter.
Etymology
From Greek 'kopro-' meaning feces and 'phyton' meaning plant. The term describes organisms that have adapted to use dung as their primary habitat and nutrient source.
Kelly Says
Many mushroom species are coprophytes, breaking down dung and returning its nutrients to soil—they're nature's recyclers, transforming waste into fertility in a surprisingly elegant way.
