This tiny, striking Xylaria species, with its nearly naked perithecia, has become the poster child for Xylariaceae research in Los Cedros. Roo and I thought they looked a bit like these in cross section:
These are Kodama, the forest spirits of Japanese folklore, as portrayed by Hayao Miyazaki in his epic 1997 film, Princess Mononoke.
This is likely the first record of X. tucumanensis from anywhere outside Argentina, and as such, significantly extends the species’ known range.
Read more about this enigmatic Xylaria and check out an extensive key to the genus for northern Argentina in the following paper:
Substrate: corticate standing dead wood (post), ~3 cm diam (same as Observation 264296)
Habitat: Northwest Andean montane forest (NT0145)
Collector(s): D. Newman & R. Vandegrift
Collection #: RLC1378
Photomicrography and molecular data forthcoming

Comments: a beautiful mycoheterotroph. This is probably T. panamensis, the one common and widespread member of the genus in the Neotropics. The rest are exceedingly rare.

This striking, monotypic ascomycete almost resembles the offspring of a Phillipsia and a Favolaschia. First described as Peziza edulis by Spegazzini in 1891, it is known only from a narrow latitudinal belt spanning three distinct phytogeographical regions in central South America.
Habitat: Atlantic Paranaense forest
Substrate: on moderately- to well-decomposed, corticate and decorticate wood (though originating from beneath the cortex).
Collector: Vicky Vignale
Collection #: CIAR017
Collected during the 2015 “Curso de Identificación de Macrohongos Degradadores de Madera,” lead by Dr. Gerardo Robledo, Dr. Elisandro Ricardo Drechsler-Santos, Dr. Orlando Fabián Popoff Montañez and Nicolás Niveiro.

Note: I have photographed this Hexatomini at Cedar Bog in Champaign County, Ohio for at least 17 years. Always in the same area.
I've added two other observations; one from back in 2004.

Small, fragile, 10cm tall. In leaf mould in heavy shade, lowland spring-fed monsoon forest, on drier part towards margin.
This is a normal gilled mushroom that has a very thin cap flesh, which splits radially (between the gills). Further drying lifts and twists the gill-segments into the flower shape in the image. The type specimen from Vanauatu had the same form on all fruitbodies, but the author was unsure whether this was an oddity, or the normal condition. The find of this Australian specimen shows that it is the norm, but it would be great to find young fruitbodies to understand exactly of the final form develops – at what point in development does it depart from a mushroom shape?
The species is Hausknechtia floriformis, a monotypic genus only described in 2020, with a single species described (by Anton Hausknecht) in 2003, previously only known from Vanuatu. I have been on the lookout for it, great to know it occurs in Australia too.

Fungi found on rotting Dicksonia antarctica beside the lake at the Alfred Nicholas Memorial Gardens, Victoria, Australia.
The ground was unusually wet because of stronger and longer La Niñas from late 2020 to mid-2022, which brought record rain to parts of south-east Australia and widespread major flooding. This fungi is not normally found at this location in mid November.

Note: at the time of photographing, Tom May (head mycologist at Melbourne Herbarium) IDed these from dried specimens he requested, as Galeropsis sp. At the time, he said there was only one other recording in Australia, from the Horsham district in NW Victoria. My specimens were growing in dry cow manure in situ.
