In the afternoon we looked at the specimens i
a laboratory under both stereo and other
microscopes.
The following species were recorded:-
Arcyria denudata
Arcyria incarnata
Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa
Comatricha nigra
Cribraria argillacea
Physarum nutans
Physarum viride
Trichia favoginea
Trichia scabra
Trichia varia
A Cribraria was also found which may be
C. piriformis, but this has still to be
confirmed. Whatever it turns out to be, it
not one of the species on the list for the
Forest published in 1970 in "The Essex
Naturalist".
