Hyperparasite fungus found in Borneo rainforest : Deep inside the rainforests of Borneo, scientists have discovered something that sounds almost unbelievable: a parasite that infects another parasite.
Researchers from the Institute for Tropical Biology and Conservation at the University of Malaysia Sabah have identified a new species of fungus that preys on the infamous "zombie fungus," creating a chain of parasitism in the jungle, as per a report. The discovery was made during several field expeditions in Sabah and later published in the journal Phytotaxa.
