Re: Myxo on mossy trunk
Hi James, Can't be certain, as microscopy would be needed to be sure, but they have the general looks of Physarum album . Pretty common, and can appear on all sorts of herbaceous/leafy/mossy/very rotten wood debris types of substrates: - Physarum album 01a 051111.jpg Physarum album 02b 100412.jpg Ph...

Re: City centre resident
Hi, They are Phaeolepiota aurea - Golden Bootleg. - See: - https://www.fungi.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=14&hilit=golden+bootleg&start=228#p3486 Maybe you could edit your post - delete the image, invert it, and reupload it. Photos from mobile phones sometimes end up upside-down, depending on which wa...

Re: Can anyone identify this?
Hi, and welcome to UK Fungi. Re your find - It isn't a fungus, (although fungus has a role in its formation), It's Hair Ice! - See this thread: - https://www.fungi.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=295&p=7497&hilit=hair+ice#p1486 . Hair Ice (02) - 26-11-16.jpg Hair Ice (03) - 26-11-16.jpg Regards, Mike.

Re: Sarcoscypha austriaca
Hi, Not sure why you would think corkscrew excipular hairs would be a pitfall re S.austriaca ? Wavy to corkscrew excipular hairs are the norm for S.austriaca . The description and key below are from page 13 of Field Mycology Journal, Volume 3(1), January 2002: - Sarcoscypha (Fr.) Boud., 1885 Type: S...

Re: Upgrade
Hi Adam, I quite like that! - It certainly fills the usable space nicely on my monitor, and looks (to my mind) less obtrusive and somehow "tidier" than the Toucan theme. I can imagine it would allow for multiple image thumbnails to be horizontally located rather than vertically, making them easier t...

Re: Upgrade
I agree the unread posts colour coding was useful so its a shame to lose that. Yes, I think that being able to see where new posts are immediately upon logging in, is important. Regards, Mike. Just noticed that unread posts are actually shown (when logged in) by the margins of the "Toucan Icon" bei...

Re: Possible Flammulina velutipes
Hello Bob, Yes Flammulina velutipes for your first. (Unless the powers that be have changed the name or decided to split things up because of genome sequencing etc. :roll: :D ) As for your second, I'd be looking at something like Nectria or Neonectria , but wouldn't like to hazard a guess as to part...

Re: Upgrade
. . . do people prefer the previous theme or this one? . . . Personally, being a bit of a dinosaur on such things, I do prefer the previous theme. It was more discreet / less intrusive. This new theme has elements that, (to me), don't gel well. (e.g. The little toucan face icons and the red topics/...

Re: Upgrade
Hi Adam, When logged in, there is no longer any indication on the main homepage to let people know that new (unread posts) have been made. Only when you have actually navigated to a forum that does contain unread posts, do you see a small red marker, at the left hand side of the title of the unread ...

Re: Upgrade
Hi Adam, 11:35am Friday 11th January. You've obviously been doing more work on the site in the interim, so to update you on what I'm seeing: - The multiple image & text problems mentioned in my post above now seem to be resolved, but the PHP-BB "header" is still showing on some pages - as below: - C...

Nice find Chris,
I was only mentioning that very same species to someone earlier today - although we didn't find any!
My fungus of the day is: -
Terana caerulea - Cobalt Crust: -

Re: Upgrade
Hi Adam, It looks like this upgrade has messed up a lot of the posts that have several images included again. eg a few examples of what's typically gone wrong: - https://www.fungi.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=223#p1099 (Text moved and images overlapping) https://www.fungi.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=40...
