Emerging from large decaying hardwood log in the bottom of low moist woodland draw dominated by paw paw trees. Locally abundant on log and absent on nearby logs. Specimens appear to be parasitizing Ophiocordyceps variabilis and/or directly competing for its larval host.

Entomopathogenic fungi. Grows in the nervous system of a host insect, altering its behaviour. Once the environmental conditions are right, the mushroom will fruit from the insect, digesting it and releasing spores above the leaf litter.

Reminiscent of Cordyceps sensu lato, no host found. Some sort of eggs found at base of mycelial threads?

Inat's computer vision seems to convey Ophiocordyceps robertsii, which is a good comparison except for location. The caterpillar was completely mummified. It was hardened and intact. It was buried under a moss mound on the ground that includes what species I believe to be Thuidium delicatulum. I just happened to see the stroma above ground and commenced a gentle dig and found the caterpillar host just beneath the surface. This was in cove forest habitat near a stream in the ground. Nearby trees are Birch, Hemlock, Pine, Oak, and a nice diversity of other trees and plants.

Collected by Laurie Jaegers during the Asheville Mushroom Club’s 2022 Wildacres foray. Growing on a beetle larva embedded in the trunk in a tree trunk. Stroma produced parallel to surface of wood, with perithecia partially embedded. Ascocarp relatively dry already at time of collection. Ascospores hyaline and filiform.

Found by chance today inside of a rotten oak burl. Hypocrealean fungi suggested, that is pretty broad though. I brought this beautiful specimen home and can help nurture it to maturity if I'm given instructions on how to do so perhaps. It is suggested that the host is Hypercombe scribonia or similar. The fungus was sprouting from the foot pads it seemed. This was a much welcomed find on a cool winter day today here in Far Southwest Virginia, USA (East Coast). I also shared one photo from within the cavity of the burl that the specimen was in just in case there was further identifying evidence that I did not recognize.
Attempts at keeping in a moist chamber for several days resulted in see maturation but eventually the entire host became compromised by mold
