Not sure which one. Spores are what I usually see, but short for H. inflatula
~5x1µ
Found by truffle dog Rye under Doug-fir. Mild, sweet aroma
Very small ascomycota growing from dirt in an orchard. It was on a piece of dirt covering a hole (bee size).
The spores were all in sacs still. They have tecture as they mature. They also look like they are darker in color.
I think. faint white pruinose around excipulum.
spores 2 celled, 9.9 - 12.3 × 5.3 - 7.4
On old Adantium culms near waterfall
Spores 0-1 septate, roughly 7.5-9x 2-2.5 (with some longer spores up to 17 microns? confused)
Paraphyses lanceolate, projecting beyond asci about 15-20 microns. Subhymenium (?) amyloid in melzers.
Numerous, evenly spaced (!) under cypress among oxalis, moss and algae
Found in a small clump, multiple clumps in the area. Thought it was a Black trumpet at first, but texture on the underside and time of year threw me off.
On elk dung. Spores 14.3-16.2x 7.4-8.3, asci roughly 95-100 x 17-20
Flesh strongly amyloid. Pores 3 - 4 per mm. Spores 5 - 6.3 x 2 - 2.5 um. Growing on a conifer log. Although the name implies it, J. Ginns from Polypores of British Columbia does not mention that this grows on charred wood.
Coast live oak leaf litter. The oaks here burned and came back but don't have much litter. There's also a ton of invasive grass here.
Found growing in shady, moist shelf above a flowing creek. I think it was growing straight from the soil but unsure. Growing just to the left was a larger cup fungus and I’m not sure if these are the same species.
