Stereopsis (fungus)
''Stereopsis'' is the sole genus of fungi in the family Stereopsidaceae. The genus was formerly placed in the family Meruliaceae in the order Polyporales but was found to belong in its own order along with the genus ''Clavulicium''. ''Stereopsis'' was circumscribed by English mycologist Derek Reid in 1965. It contains species that form funnel-shaped basidiocarps as well as the corticioid species ''Stereopsis globosa'' which was formerly considered a species of ''Clavulicium''. The species '' Stereopsis humphreyi'' and ''Stereopsis vitellina'' were found to belong in the Agaricales and Atheliales respectively in a molecular phylogenetics study, and because of this do not belong in ''Stereopsis'', but they have not yet been transferred to their own genera. Species *'' Stereopsis burtiana'' *''Stereopsis cartilaginea'' *''Stereopsis crassipileata'' *''Stereopsis gracilistipitata'' *''Stereopsis hiscens'' *''Stereopsis globosa'' *'' Stereopsis humphreyi'' *''Stereopsis malaiensis'' *' ...

Fungi
A fungus (plural, : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of Eukaryote, eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and Mold (fungus), molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a Kingdom (biology), kingdom, separately from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which by one traditional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of motility, mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single gro ...

Stereopsis Vitellina
Stereopsis () is the component of depth perception retrieved through binocular vision. Stereopsis is not the only contributor to depth perception, but it is a major one. Binocular vision happens because each eye receives a different image because they are in slightly different positions on one’s head (left and right eyes). These positional differences are referred to as "horizontal disparities" or, more generally, " binocular disparities". Disparities are processed in the visual cortex of the brain to yield depth perception. While binocular disparities are naturally present when viewing a real three-dimensional scene with two eyes, they can also be simulated by artificially presenting two different images separately to each eye using a method called stereoscopy. The perception of depth in such cases is also referred to as "stereoscopic depth". The perception of depth and three-dimensional structure is, however, possible with information visible from one eye alone, such as diff ...
