Dog Vomit Slime Mold (Fuligo septica)Observer
dogsinthegardenDescription
Have since found out it’s “Dog Vomit fungus”—perfect name! (Though it's a slime mold, not a fungus.) Covered with flies at first. Growing in a UC Master Gardener demonstration low water garden with heavy wood chip.

Found on log previously occupied by saprobic polypore. Red fluid exudes from bruising developing slowly over 30 seconds. Possible Fuligo septica known to bleed when ageing, though paler than expected.

It has been suggested by Dmytro Leontyev that this may be D. ferrugineum, but species doesn't display here.

lesliejoanDescription
and possible Poriella subacida as substrate on a rotten fir log/ parchment orange and cream with shelving "teeth" and white fungal disks on top that might be part of the fungus or might be a mycoparasite. White spores cast on top of log that might be from the parchment or the mycoparasite: ellipsoid, almost subglobose, unigutulate: 5.0 - 5.4 x 4.0 to 4.5/ pore shape and size consistent with Poriella subacida/ La Fonge photo by Herman Lambert, 2013, shows a white disk on the P subacida photo
