Plural form of auricularia in Latin scientific nomenclature, referring to multiple specimens of the wood ear fungi genus.
From 'auricularia' with the Latin feminine plural ending '-ae,' used in formal biological and taxonomic descriptions.
Even plurals of fungal genus names follow Latin rules in scientific writing—it's why mycologists say 'auriculariae' instead of 'auricularias' when discussing multiple wood ear fungi!
