Fungoida heatmap error?

[Make]

So I am on the COL 285 sector UZ-0 C6-9 planet 8 (same system that has the Orion's Folly abandoned colony). On the planet 8 there should be 6 bio signals, so far have found just 5, missing the Fungoida type.
Asked this question on Odyssey forum and got 2 good answers. Update: Another hour pinging most smallest heatmap Fungoida locations with Genetic sampler on foot, nothing. ONLY Stratum and Tussock and sometimes Bacterium biosignals. Those 3 biological plant appear always on fungoida areas but never the fungoida plant heatmap should show. Verified my game files on Steam, they are fine.
Questions: Has anyone actually found this Bio type on this planet?
And do you know areas where the Fungoida heatmap does not overlap with any other biotype here?
What is the terrain type for Fungoida, rocky or flat?

Fungoida generally prefer rough, rocky terrain on mountains, the type of terrain that is very difficult to land on, and hard to navigate with the SRV.

@ OP, I have had experiences like this that it seems no matter where you look on some planets all bio signals are not available. I came to the conclusion that sometimes they are actually not there. As an example especially when in an are where there is only supposed to be fungoida, but all you ever find is other bio signals and no fungoida.

Considering the number of bodies in the galaxy it does not seem odd to me that there are mistakes. Is it annoying, yes, but not unexpected to me considering the actual number of bodies involved.

This is exactly what seems to be going on here. I'm planning on deep space biological expedition and have set goal that ALL the biological signals on the given planet must be sampled. Seems undoable if the situation is like this. Further update on my Fungoida hunt: verified my game files on Steam, reinstalled game, and scanned another hour mountain areas, found nothing. Tried submitting bug report to Frontier, not sure at all if they received it.
A few questions: Does the Fungoida grow all over the mountain area or just at the base of the mountain? Is there ALWAYS other plants around them?
And repeating my earlier question: On this exact planet; Has anyone found area where the Fungoida heatmap DOES NOT overlap with another biogogal plant types?
Finally: Has anyone found this plant on THIS planet and IF you have, what is the location?
If this situation cannot be fixed maybe just have to accept that just cannot get all samples from the planets.

The Canonn signals page tells me that it is likely to be Fungoida Setsis - Orange https://canonn-science.github.io/canonn-signals/index.html?system=Col 285 Sector UZ-O c6-9

They are really difficult to find expecially if the heatmap has only tiny areas. Look for tiny areas where the blue has a slightly greenish tinge as you are more likely to find them there.

The Canonn Trello has terrain types so that might help you https://trello.com/b/9GYkLyVc/odyssey-surface-biology

This is what it looks like

Actually if you really want to scan it, two people have allready scanned it at these coordinates

18.91997 179.93295
-38.38943 2390106

If you use the Canonn edsm plugin it can show you what has been scanned already, Each of the # numbers is a location on the surface, You can click on it and the plugin will guide you to the location.

Thank you very much for these answers. Will install and use that plugin immediately .
How does that plugin update it's database? When you scan the plants and the plugin is running? Can you update it's database when you sell the bio data to Vista Genomics?

You need to use your composition scanner from ship or SRV. The hand tool doesn't generate a codex entry unless it is the first time you have scanned the species and the events it generates only record the species not the variety

Yeah, something to keep in mind is that the terrain heatmap doesn't detect the actual life forms there, but rather the terrain types that "might" have those forms of life. Usually you can find something if you look hard enough, but it definitely varies by planet, and in the worst cases you'll be lucky to find even one, if anything. Fungoids in my experience definitely fall into the category of sometimes being very sparse or not even present, just because the terrain didn't fully cooperate in those regions. But since Fungoids are sparse anyway, and difficult to land near, they're also difficult to spot from any significant distance, so they take extra care to be sure not to miss.

Fungoida are generally not worth bothering with. They're only worth a few hundred k, landing near them is a pain, their scanning range is just larger than their largest cluster size, and they don't even look all that interesting.

Scan them once if you must, but after that, I ignore then 99% of the time.

If you DO want to scan them, I suggest just noting the coordinates of sites you find and scanning other things. If you're lucky, by the time you've scanned everything else on the planet, you'll have located 2-3 sites and can just fly point to point to get the scans.

Thank you, that Canonn edsm plugin is a life and timesaver! From now on I will NEVER fly without it.
