Small Moss Oysterling (Arrhenia retiruga) We visited a trail near the Carter&#039;s Lake Reservoir, and we found this fungus growing on the water-logged mosses in a grassy/meadowy area. This area is prone to flooding and is often covered in a carpet of mosses. Murray County, GA, US. January 4, 2020.

      Jason has great vision and he noticed them before I did! They are not very easy to see when embedded in soggy moss :D Posted 5 years ago
