| Description |
English: A slime mould - Mucilago crustacea (young specimen) This creamy-coloured crumbly mass, the fruiting body of a slime mould, was about 7cm long, and covered in tiny finger-like projections. It was found encrusted onto blades of grass (a very typical habitat for this species), and it is at an early stage in its development.
Beneath the outer covering (the cortex), this slime mould contains a complex mass of tubules with cross-connections. Another example of the same species was found growing next to this one; it was at a later stage of development (about a day older), and it shows the internal structure more clearly; see the "next stage" link below. This is the second of a series of four images showing different stages of the slime mould's development.
