nlightenup Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Here's today's mystery. Found this under a large shrub, growing close to a tree root. Very thin "leaves," really just one in a funnel formation. The outside feels like a dry leaf, and the inside is very velvety. The piece of grass came up with the roots and I left it there to help with contrast and perspective. The closest thing I can find to it is wynnea americana, aka moose antlers, but this has just the one cup-like formation instead of several. Awaiting the word of the masters!

Dave W Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 This one looks kinda weathered... difficult to get a solid ID. But it does appear to be a "cup fungus." So "Moose Antlers" is at least on the right track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
