The Fungi World (275) : Tubifera ferruginosa
Tubifera ferruginosa is not really 100% a fungus, but a spongy slime mould that can occur on damp rotten wood from late summer till autumn, especially on large logs in shady forest areas.
Its fruiting body appears as small cushion-like blobs (only 0,5 to 1cm. in diameter) that are creeping across the dead wood at the speed of as much as 2,5 cm. per hour, meanwhile growing, eating,…….
A bit mysterious creature.
In ancient times, it was believed there was a werewolf in the neighbourhood when this slime mould was found…..
There exists no English name for this species.
Dutch name : Rossig buiskussen
German name : Lachsfarbene Schleimpilz
Latin name : Tubifera ferruginosa

spongy little suckers of a creepy-crawly nature, that's what they are! sign that a werewolf is in the hood?? ah, those overly dramatic medievals!! ; ) my first thought was a much more mundane one, as to me it looked as though some messly little child had spilled its late-summer orange slush on the tree, and then carelessly moved o… – – "think again, lady!" smirks the monster and wolfs down his unexpected supper… greetings… from the depth of the bowels of the creature! ; )) sabineInge Stüwe 17/09/2015 16:15
