Isaria sp.

Açıklama:

This one had me stumped for quite a while. I now think it could be a Paecilomyces species, most likely Paecilomyces tenuipes as that is the species recorded in Tasmania. Fuhrer states in his field guide that it parasitises beetle larvae. There were two of them "growing" on this fern tree trunk, see here: www.flickr.com/photos/gugglebun/15297872277/in/set-721576...Photographed in the Botanical Garden Reserve at Straun, on the Hogarth Falls walk.IDENTIFYING AUSTRALIAN RAINFOREST PLANTS,TREES & FUNGI - Flick Group --> DATABASE INDEX - TAGS
