Artem PtukhaHello, I am seeking assistance with the identific
I can't figure this one out, can somebody help me?
At first I thought the white, hairy tufts grew on mice dung, but later they turned out to grow on moss namely: Kindbergia praelonga.
Under the microscope I didn't find a "hairlike"-structure but probably conidiogenous cells and conidia.
Measurement of conidiogenous cells: 282-395 x 12-23 µm
Measurements of conidia: 15,11-35,21 x 9,21-12,91 µm
Thanks in advance and for everyone the best wishes for 2021!

I have no idea about the fungus.
But I think it does not grow (mainly) on moss, but on faeces of rainworm, otherwise also called soil.
Best regards, Lothar
Thanks for the information! So it's earthworm faeces, because there was a lot of mouse activity in the area I thought of mouse "shit". I have to admit that dung is not my favorite subject!
I attach a photo to prove that the fungus did grow on moss.
Greetings,
François
