Caloplaca on polished stone surface. It is interesting since the black prothallus can be seen clearly. This is on a stone sculpture. Sakura-saku Lane, Saku, Nagano #Lichen#FungiFriends

Yes, I know I've posted a photo (or three) of this guy before, but that was from a different angle!
A thick elm stump with some Auricularia mesenterica for both #ThickTrunkTuesday and all the #FungiFriends out there.

Cladonia sp.
I've been trying to take more notice of #lichens this year, they are such fascinating organisms.
This lovely lichen, a Trumpet Lichen (Cladonia fimbriata) according to #inaturalist, was growing in the Porongurup National Park in early October

Alder, Coast Redwoods and Sitka Spruce make up the trees of Humboldtโs Community Forest. Here, a short stemmed Russula, some sulfur caps, orange jelly (mislabeled above), and some very tiny decomposers #FungiFriends ๐๐ธ
Some orange jelly spot? A lovely partial veil hanging off a cap and a Lycoperdon umbrinum, Umber-brown puffball. Until a few years ago this forest was logged consistently, so there are no old trees and it is dense with little understory. Itโll take many decades to rebuild. #FungiFriends ๐๐ธ
Marasmiellus candidus, aka Fairy parachutes, much larger than I usually see them. Second, Lepiota atrodisca, which were all over in many sizes, and some others I didnโt ID. #FungiFriends ๐๐ธ
It looks like we'll be stuck indoors for a while, with an atmospheric river bearing down on us bringing abnormally heavy rainfall through Friday.
From this weekend's forest excursion.
A Red-Belted Conk, Fomitopsis pinicola surrounded by Orange Jelly Spot, Dacrymyces chrysospermus. #FungiFriends
Liverwort Athalamia hyalina, looking like the advance party for a goofy alien invasion. The liverwort structures are about 1cm high. #liverwort#bryophyte#fungifriends
