Album 2637: College Station - Sam Houston Forest, Texas, January 23 - 25, 2020

The image shows a close-up view of a yellow plasmodium covering an elastic fungus.

The **yellow plasmodium** is located on top of what appears to be either Wrightoporia avellanea or W. austrosinensis (elastic fungi). The plasmodium has a flat, irregular shape and covers most of the surface area of the fungal growth. It is characterized by its bright yellow color and wavy texture.

In the background, there are some dark spots visible on the log where the fungus is growing. These may be indicative of other organisms or debris that have accumulated on the surface. The overall appearance suggests a damp environment with high humidity, which would be conducive to the growth of fungi and slime molds. – AI vision
