Swan dung
Malcolm Greaves, 29-02-2024 16:43
Malcolm  GreavesCan someone suggest what this might be. It is developing on Swan dung. It starts out as a white slightly hairy globe. The hairs collect droplets and the surface of the globe goes darker. The final stage is a dark hard shell over a pure white inside. I have not managed to find any asci on the first sample but it might still be too immature.
It looks so unusual I feel sure someone must know the species.Thanks

Re : Swan dung
Possibly sclerotia of Coprinopsis tuberosus or C. sclerotiorum.
