The Fungi world (51) : Dog vomit slime mold
Have a look at that peculiar yellow appearance of the ‘Dog vomit slime mold’. Ain’t that nice ?
Slime moulds are usually growing on old well-rotted logs in damp and shady forest areas, because there they can find the moisture and bacteria required for survival.
It’s a creeping fungus that moves very slowly.
Dutch name : Heksenboter
German name : Gelbe Lohblüte
Latin name : Fuligo septica
