Slime Mould on Moss in Hardcastle Crags
A few of us went to look for Beech Fern in the Crags recently.
We were hoping to track down an old record but the vegetation was a bit thick.
While searching one of the watercourses I spotted this Slime Mould growing on Common Feather Moss.
Reminiscent of Trichia decipiens but I don’t believe that grows on mosses.
My limited research has not led me to a reasonable ID so far.
Below you can see how the form changes over time.
