Field Notes

Description:

From a distance this resembles dog vomit slime mold (Fuligo septica) and close up it resembles sago pudding, <br> There were two patches about 60mm long and about 4mm thick.

Habitat:

Found on a damp log in the local national park. Dandenong Ranges NP.

Notes:

Synonymous with Hypocrea sulphurea, Sphaeria sulfurea <br> Apparently this stuff is parasitic on Exidia sp. !! <br> https://www.messiah.edu/Oakes/fungi_on_wood/jelly%20fungi/species%20pag… <br> https://bie.ala.org.au/species/NZOR-6-133762#overview
