I had to ask a lot of experts to identify this mushroom and I'm still not 100% sure if it's correct.
But I believe that it is a sclerotia of Typhula phacorrhiza which means, that it is a special state of the fungus because of water shortage.
So it's a condition to protect the fungus from drying...
I tried to figure about what kind of slime moulds I've found here but without success. Seems to be a very early stage of developent and it's not possible to identify it without a microscope.
But I hope you like it even if you don't know what it is.

Hi to all of you,
this picture was taken two weeks ago and it's my best and most detailed picture of a water drop which is just about 1,5mm! No exxageration!
Hope you like my "lensball"!

Hi and welcome again to the microworld of our slime moulds,
this time I would like to present you the Diderma montanum. A tiny slime moulds which is just abourt 2-3mm.
It's a bit older as you can see because of the burst spore capsules.

This pictures shows the hard side of nature. A dead Springtail with a fungus infection...
But the dead body helps the fungus to survive. So one live for another.... that's how mother nature works.
Have fun and stay healthy,
Jörg
Hi 🍄-fellows,
how are you in these days? Hopefully you're healthy and fully motivated to post pictures?
I would like to show you again one of my slime mould pictures and I hope that I make some of you with it a joy.
Have fun!
Jörg
Hi 🍄-fellows,
Polydesmia pruinosa is a very small fungus with only about 1mm diameter. Please open it in fullscreen to see even the reflections in the little water drops to the right. You can see myself standing in front of the mushroom with my tripod. :)
Have fun and stay healthy,
Jörg
What did one mushroom say to the other mushroom? “You’re one FUN-gi to be with!” The United States celebrates National Mushroom Day, I think all of North Americans should celebrate the wonder of fungi today.
