Field Notes

Description:

I have no idea what these are, but they appear to be plant- like... I can't tell if they're just attached to the leaf or on top of it though. They look almost like crimson fruit loops but the hole in the middle isn't complete. Could be a strange kind of berry, a seed, a plant disease, or some kind of animal dung...

Habitat:

High desert, Central Mexico

they could grow on the green leaf and die when the leaf fell
But Galls seen on green leafs...I feel its a Fungus...grown on dried leafs...
Gall possibility is not much as Galls seen part of leaf.
Such kind of thin mushroom seen on leafs also in post monsoon. Its must be dried.
