A plate of dried black fungus. Overview. Black fungus, or Auricularia polytricha, is sometimes known as wood ear, cloud ear, Judas ear or tree ear. It is a mushroom that is dark brown to black and native to Asia and some Pacific islands with humid climates, according to the Mycological Society of San Francisco.
It is caused by a fungus and not by a worm, as the name suggests. Another common form of scalp fungus is Pityrosporum ovale. The P. ovale fungus is normally present in small amounts on our scalp, but when the fungus experiences overgrowth, it causes the dry, itchy flaking we commonly refer to as dandruff. Symptoms Symptoms of a scalp fungus can vary from reddened, itching, painful circular patches to excessive dry, itching, flaking all over the scalp.
