Myxomycetes

Overview

Plasmodium black. Sporothecae solitary or crowded and heaped in layers to form a pseudoaethalium. Pseudoaethalia 1-10 cm diam., varying in colour from grey, yellow-brown to brown, often tinted olive. Hypothallus white or brown, spongy in pseudoaethalial forms. Peridium containing calcic granules usually scattered irregularly in pseudoaethalia. Calcic granules 0.3-0.8 µm diam. Sometimes the upper layer of sporothecae dries prematurely to form a dark shiny, bullate crust. Pseudocapillitium completely absent or scanty and then strand-like. Spore-mass yellow or olive. Spores pale brown, 6.0-7.5 µm diam., minutely verruculose, nearly smooth. On dead coniferous wood, rarely on deciduous wood.
