Stemonitis fusca
Overview
Plasmodium white. Sporocarps tufted on a brown, membranous hypothallus, 6-20 mm tall. Stalk black, shining, 20-45% total height. Sporotheca deep fuscous varying to dark red-brown, becoming paler as the spores are shed. Columella dark brown or blackish, reaching nearly or quite to the apex. Capillitium arising from all parts of the columella, freely branched and anastomosed, the ultimate branchlets united into a close-meshed surface net. Spore-mass fuscous. Spores violet-brown, prominently to delicately verrucose-reticulate or rarely spinulose or papillate, 7.5-9 µm diam.
