Bright Yellow Slime Mould.

Post by mushroom mike » Wed May 31, 2017 8:10 pm

Hello, Could anyone identify this bright yellow slime mould please. It's on a piece of carved pine. The closest I can get to is Tubifera ferrigunosa but that is respberry coloured. Sorry for the lack of information and thanks in advance.

Hi Mike

You may be right. Ing has T.ferruginosa as "Plasmodium orange, apricot or pink, or white, then pink". I've certainly often found many bright orange examples before. Time will tell...

Cheers,

John
