Evans Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Out scouting around this past weekend in the upper Glen Rose and I found a new site rich in Salenia and Macraster specimens not to mention so many algal balls (Porocystis globularis) that it looked like someone spilled a five gallon can of marbles all over the ground. I also found what I think to be my first Coenholectypus specimen, but I need some help with the exact ID. Thanks, Brian Brian Evans For every complex problem, there is a solution that is simple, neat, and wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest N.AL.hunter Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 sorry I can't help with the ID, but it sure does look like a nice one to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracer Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Coenholectypus planatus (Roemer) would be my feeble thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roz Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Excellent find! It is so hard to find one in that kind of shape... few and far between... Were the fruiting bodies showing a lot of detail? Welcome to the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy1971 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Coenholectypus planatus (Roemer) would be my feeble thought. I second Tracer's ID. Very nice specimen! Post some of your salenia's. I would love to see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Siphuncle Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I think Tracer is on the chili. That is one of the bigger and better Kgr specimens I've seen. Grüße, Daniel A. Wöhr aus Südtexas "To the motivated go the spoils." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the fruiting bodies showing a lot of detail? Hi Roz, No, the fruiting bodies showed very little detail and I was hard pressed to find a good, complete spherical body. Next time I go out I'll get pic of the collecting surface area. This spot shows no sign of any other collecting taking place and if we ever get rain around San Antonio it should weather very nicely. I ran out of daylight this past weekend and have only covered about a third of the exposure. Brian Brian Evans For every complex problem, there is a solution that is simple, neat, and wrong.
