Oysterling mushrooms Crepidotus calolepis when exposed to regular daylight as well as when illuminated by a 365 nm ultraviolet (UV-A) blacklight taken from North Wilderness Trail of Little Lake Creek Wilderness in Sam Houston National Forest north from Montgomery. Texas

🎞️ #3639-17

The image presents a comparative study of Oysterling mushrooms under two distinct lighting conditions: regular daylight and UV-A blacklight illumination.

**Top Section (Daylight):**

* The top section showcases six oysterling mushroom caps arranged in a horizontal row.
* Each cap is positioned with its gills facing upwards, allowing for a clear view of the ridges that run along the edges of each cap.
* The caps are light brown to beige in color and appear relatively uniform in size.

**Bottom Section (UV-A Blacklight):**

* In contrast, the bottom section features the same six oysterling mushroom caps illuminated by UV-A blacklight at a wavelength of 365 nm.
* When exposed to this specific wavelength, the mushrooms exhibit a striking blue-green fluorescent glow.
* The fluorescence is most pronounced along the edges of each cap and in the central ridges of the gills.

**Comparison:**

* Upon comparing both sections, it becomes apparent that the UV-A blacklight accentuates the natural coloration of the mushroom caps while also highlighting the intricate details of their gill structure.
* This comparison underscores the unique properties of these mushrooms under different lighting conditions. – AI vision

Los hongos Oysterling Crepidotus calolepis cuando están expuestos a la luz del día regular, así como cuando son iluminados por una luz negra de 365 nm (UV-A) tomada desde el North Wilderness Trail de Little Lake Creek Wilderness en Sam Houston National Forest al norte de Montgomery. Texas, 7 de noviembre de 2024. La imagen presenta un estudio comparativo de los hongos Oysterling bajo dos condiciones de iluminación distintas: luz del día regular e iluminación con luz negra de UV-A. **Sección superior (Daylight):** * La sección superior muestra seis sombreros de seta Oysterling dispuestos en una fila horizontal. * Cada sombrero está colocado con sus láminas orientadas hacia arriba, lo que permite una vista clara de los rebordes que corren a lo largo de los bordes de cada sombrero. * Los sombreros son de color marrón claro a beis y aparecen relativamente uniformes en tamaño. **Sección inferior (UV-A Blacklight):** * En contraste, la sección inferior presenta los mismos seis sombreros de seta Oysterling iluminados con luz negra de UV-A a una longitud de onda de 365 nm. * Cuando se exponen a esta longitud de onda específica, las setas exhiben un resaltante brillo fluorescente azul verde. * El brillo es más pronunciado a lo largo de los bordes de cada sombrero y en las crestas centrales de las láminas. **Comparación:** * Al comparar ambas secciones, resulta evidente que la luz negra de UV-A acentúa la coloración natural de los sombreros de seta al tiempo que destaca los detalles intrincados de su estructura de láminas. * Esta comparación subraya las propiedades únicas de estas setas bajo diferentes condiciones de iluminación. – Spanish translation
