Hi, hope you are doing well.I am aware that this website may not be the best suited website to post my request, but I do not know other options. Currently I am studying the genus of Hyphomycetes Hormomyces. The type species is Hormomyces aurantiacus wich have an European type specimen. Unfortunatly the type specimen contain only a picture and the vast majority of specimens come from the Americas.
Hormomyces produce gelatinous orange sporodochia on wet rotten wood or on polypores, the microscopy is remarquable due to the complex moniliform chains of conidia. in the field it may be confused by a plasmodial slime mold.
Here is a picture of one from Canada

Therefore I would like to compare the Hormomyces from the Americas to their European counterpart. Unfortunately I do not have th chance to go to Europe myself, so I would like to request, that if someone find a fresh specimen of an Hormomyces in Europe, to let me know, so that I can study it.
Thank you for your help, and if you know a bette ressource for this, please let me know
Best regards
Jonathan M.
