Habitat
L. pyriforme
most commonly grows on
some form of wood, whether directly on a rotting log or in soil
that has woody remnants underneath the soil surface.
It has also been observed to grow in areas with
sufficiently large collections of sawdust.
For more about why this organism utilizes wood as a
substrate refer to the
