The slimer thread. :)

I think I may have developed a strange attraction for slime molds and jelly fungus. 
Carrying on from this I think I would like to see other peoples slime, the gooier the better. 
Here are some to kick it off.

Go forth and bring me your finest goo.

Where did you do a little research on it? I'm not finding much. And thanks, the picture was mostly luck, the swaying of the branches in the wind made for a lot of blurry photos.

Awesome thread! I love finding strange slimy fungi, I just need to resist the desire to poke them because I am always disappointed by the results...

A lot of great pictures in this thread..nice photography people!
Here is one of my favorite slimes. I found in last year in PA, I think late summer. Look closely, I brushed the little arms and got a small spore cloud.

Yeh I don't know how I have never seen this thread, its been around for months, what a good thread!
Dog Vomit Slime Mold (I can't not find this lately, Fuligo septica):
  
Pink Pipe Cleaner Slime Mold (Stemonitis sp. probably young S. fusca):
 
3. Black Jelly Roll (Exidia glandulosa):

4. I never was really sure of this one but I tentatively called it Tremella encephala, but I don't think I ever put it on MO so ima do that now:
 
5. Tree Sap. I always thought I would know tree sap when I saw it, since I've seen it before and it has usually has some distinctive characteristics like you know, being super sticky and usually smelling really strongly of whatever tree it leaked out of, but "tree sap" was suggested and I I guess it is. The consistency was like that of Jell-O, very watery and it disintigrated and pretty much looked like Jell-O would under a microscope, no hyphae, no cells, just watery. No odor:
 
Again, neat thread!!

I'd agree with myxomop at MO, doesn't look that fungal, I'd also add the guess of dried sap.

Good idea for a thread.
-------------------- Having lived through an existence close to nature, one accepts the small and simple things as most important in life. Sun, wind, rain and snow. The sounds birds make, smells of fresh wild flowers. Love of all kinds, from friends and family, thy self and our neighbors. Beautiful sunrises to the darkest clouds dancing above in the sky. To forgive, learn, share and express. This is the only thing a man such as myself can ask for. What comes as the result is nothing short of the core of human existence, to truly live free in body and mind.
