They also said Cantharellus only grow on trees in their print issue, likely AI generated text. Their last video on fungi was full of errors as well. They have really gone downhill

Mycophobic nonsense.

I see no more need to announce I don't believe in the Christian god than there I see need to announce I don't believe in Zeus. Both questions are completely irrelevant to my life

Good question - I don't think they're damaging to the host, but it is hard to find good info

You'll have more luck checking Trichaptum - I've never found them on Trametes yet. There's also a similar looking species, Gliocladium polyporicola, which grows on Stereum hirsutum, so may as well check all the small shelf fungi!

 

Phaeocalicium polyporaeum is a tiny mycoparasitic fungus, seen here on its most common host, Trichaptum cf biforme, although it has also been reported on Trametes versicolor.

PA has "Altoona style" and "Old Forge style", both hailing from miserable coal bust towns and consisting more or less of a slice of american "cheese" and red sauce on a sheet crust, I think one has a green pepper under it.

Jersey maybe? Idk. It feels like an Italian American thing, despite it being something Italian Americans would hate if anyone else had come up with it

Tolypocladium sp, which grow from an inedible Elaphomyces truffle

Clathrus columnatus perhaps? Def one of the stinkhorns

Nice to see the real thing! Lots of people recently down south here in the states posting Verbesina and similar "frost flowers" producing plants during the freeze

Nice! They're fun to toss in soups or make gummies

Pezizales, at least haha Ascomycetes, especially cups, terrify me. There are so many that look macroscopically identical

Check Apioperdon pyriforme 🍄

 

A big ol' Pseudoinonotus dryadeus aka "oak bracket". These fruit bodies can overwinter and last multiple years! This one was about 2ft across
