I've been back in the graveyard today, squatting amongst the damp moss with a pair of forceps and my macro lens trying to get the best possible photo of Atheniella delectabilis. These are truly tiny. Here are the results. #fungi #fungifriends

Lathagrium auriforme is a superb jelly lichen, and quite variable. The tiny globular shiny isidia are very cool.

I saw this beauty in the woods the other day. What even is it? I love it so much 🥺
Some kind of lichen (maybe) with green cup shapes growing on a pile of dead leaves on the forest floor.

Punctelia borreri. One of the colonies that I always check when I visit this place. Looking dark this time of year. Tokikubo, Komoro, Nagano #Lichen #FungiFriends
ハクテンゴケ。長野県小諸市鴇久保 #地衣類
Close-up of the lobe of Punctelia lichen. The lobe is round with thin brown edge. There are white raised dots, and tiny grains of white dust all over the lobe. Colony of Punctelia lichen on tree. There is a rift in the middle of the colony and therefore the colony is split into two parts. Lobes are beaten up and tattered. There are white raised dots all over the lobes.

Though I’ve only encountered it a handful of times, the aborted form of the blushing rosette (Abortiporus biennis) is among my favorite fungi! These coral-like projections are not filled with basidiospores, but instead are filled with ellipsoid to subglobose asexual chlamydospores! #Mushrooms
