Skills and Traits
Physical Traits=
 * Matango Physiology:
 * Spores: Due to her fungal nature, Mashu can release hallucinogenic spores from her hymenophore underneath her "head cap" and the "shirt ruffles" on her body. These spores are powerful enough to cause mass hallucinations & even personality changes. The spores are believed to be able to awaken a Liminal's dormant instincts, such as a Zombie's desire to spread her infection. Likewise, if Mashu gets nervous, scared, or flustered, she unconsciously starts releasing a far greater amount of spores. Due to this reason, her entire species was classified as "dangerous" and prohibited from ever entering Japan.
 * Dreadlocks: A Matango' s dreadlocks are actually organs that assist in spore production.
 * Hypha: A Matango's legs can be extended into the ground to absorb water and nutrients when in dark and humid locations.
 * Weakness: While not directly detrimental to Mashu herself, she has no control over the spores she releases. She also cannot control their effects, nor can she remove them from the air after they've been released. She compares this to recollecting all the air a human has breathed out but it can be flushed out with water.

Zoological Classification
The Matango (マタンゴ) is a mysterious Liminal species which, despite being classified as a plant-like Liminal, actually has more fungal properties.

Due to their spores, which have a hallucinogenic effect on other living beings, Matango are considered as dangerous, and are generally forbidden from participating in the Inter-Species Cultural Exchange Program. In fact, however, Matango have no control over their spores, causing them to harm others without meaning to. Apparently there are different species or subspecies of Matango as the hallucinating effect of the spores varies depending on the species of Matango that spreads them. In contrast to fungi, Matango don't reproduce via their spores, although more precise information on this is not known.

Trivia

 * The Matango monster first appeared in the 1963 Toho film, .
 * Since Matango is considered too dangerous to be included in the Interspecies exchange program due to its hallucinogenic spores, it is unknown why Mashu was allowed to join as an Exchange Student.
 * This apparent inconsistency stems from the fact that Mashu appeared in Monster Musume Online, before Matango were officially included as Liminal species in the manga series.
