It was underneath the log, so it couldn't be stuck like poop.

Unfortunately this is the only picture I have and didn't know I was supposed to check the underside. Any guesses? It's been driving us crazy and returning to get more pictures is out of the question lol

Before I put some of these conidia under the microscope, does anyone know off hand what clade this fungus belongs to? This is an ID request.

I am doing a sterile rearing procedure for Blatta lateralis cockroaches. This ootheca was a control (not sterilized) and I found this fungal mass enclosing from the seam instead of a roach! Lol.

Personally, I’m interested in entomopathogenic fungal research, but this fungus doesn’t look like a typical EPF. It kind of resembles Aspergillus flavus - but the growths are protruding like crazy!!

We’ve been trying to get these oyster mushrooms to fruit for the past two months with little to no success! We’ve been misting them two times a day with holes to fruit and nothing! Mycelium looks super healthy though. What is wrong??

Was wondering what is showing up. They has a bush of bristly hairs and are like a cone.

Hi all, I am organizing a free class on fungi! It will be held online. I am an amateur, but I know a fair amount about fungi. Topics will include taxonomy, life cycle, ecology, identification, foraging, and more. Participants can contribute as much or little as they want (you could just listen or you could teach a class yourself).

Meetings will be held every Saturday, 3pm EST, for as long as interest lasts. Link: https://calendar.app.google/cxTSg8YgZniuMh4S8

It’s already turning brown

There's a ton of recipes online and everyone is creating new recipes to one up another. I'm looking for how the common folk usually eats them and enjoys them too their full potential. Thank you!

Hey, my friend has dried some Reishi mushrooms and has stored these for a couple of months.

I notice some blue to grey areas in the mushroom. Does anybody know what they are? Are they still good to make tinctures?

Hi, I'm Brazilian and I'm working on my thesis on macrofungi from mixed ombrophilous forest. However, there is little available material, I need help with some identification keys mainly for Basidiomycota.
