''Cordyceps sinensis'') is a fungus which infects a caterpillar, and uses nutrients out of it to create mycelia and replaces its body with a sclerotium. The fungus then sprouts out of the head of the caterpillar. In Chinese the fungus is known as ''Dōng chóng xià cǎo'' ({{zh\|c=冬虫夏草\|l=winter worm, summer grass}}). ===''Inonotus obliquus''===
