Floor fungus is the yellow one.

Floor fungus is an underground floor-covering fungus, growing natively in the first cavern layer. As it is functionally a grass, grazers may feed on it.

As with the other underground grasses, floor fungus only appears after a cavern containing it has been discovered. After that has happened, it may spread on any below-ground soil surface, or on a muddied stone surface that has not been smoothed. The amount of mud on the surface does not affect the distribution or growth rate of subterranean plants [1].

While it might appear other types of fungi grow from the floor fungus, this is really just that they too grow on the same muddy floor.

Not Guano.
