Ionomidotis irregularis (Schwein.) E.J. Durand 183251

Description:

Description: Ionomidotis irregularis (Schwein.) E.J. Durand Image location: Rock Creek Regional Park, Montgomery Co., Maryland, USA Growing on surface of decortated dead wood in vicinity of live moss. Section shows hollow branching structure that bruises purple then black. Fragrant as in mossy wood and fresh mushroom but not really sweet. It does not look infected, but the dusty surface may not be part of the original critter. I share the sense that it is unlikely to be Ramaria. Then again the overall morphology is more like Ramaria than anything I can find. The surface is covered with conidia or spores – lots of variation in size, shape, internal structure.
