September 3, 2009: Stemonitis Slime Mold

Stemonitis Slime Mold: An interesting single-cell organism, the slime mold found here is a Stemonitis Slime Mold. It can usually be found on rotting wood, and with the right view point can be quite pretty! In this picture, they look like some sort of exotic, chocolate coated delicacy. I doubt they taste that way though.
