    Abstract: We study a cellular automaton (CA) model of information
    dynamics on a single hypha of a fungal mycelium. Such a filament
    is divided in compartments (here also called cells) by septa.
    These septa are invaginations of the cell wall and their pores
    allow for flow of cytoplasm between compartments and hyphae. The
    septal pores of the fungal phylum of the Ascomycota can be closed
    by organelles called Woronin bodies. Septal closure is increased
    when the septa become older and when exposed to stress
    conditions. Thus, Woronin bodies act as informational flow
    valves. The one dimensional fungal automata is a binary state
    ternary neighbourhood CA, where every compartment follows one of
    the elementary cellular automata (ECA) rules if its pores are
    open and either remains in state `0' (first species of fungal
    automata) or its previous state (second species of fungal
    automata) if its pores are closed. The Woronin bodies closing the
    pores are also governed by ECA rules. We analyse a structure of
    the composition space of cell-state transition and pore-state
    transitions rules, complexity of fungal automata with just few
    Woronin bodies, and exemplify several important local events in
    the automaton dynamics.
