mycomagusDescription
Growing along rock heap at trailside under duff layer from buried material that's very soft and hard to excavate.
After like 8 tries I managed to dig up the soft sclerotia about the size of a big raisin with web-like white soft mass inside. Sclerotinia sulcata? I'm still in the woods I'll check later.
Vouchered !!! Someone wanna sequence this for me ?
The leafy plants in their immediate vicinity were way too baby for me to identify. At the base of an oak tree, a few feet away from virginia waterleaf, galium, Hepatica
