Thanks @ragman for joining me and the Philly Myco club on today鈥檚 foray! Here鈥檚 my coolest find: a sexual morph of a cordyceps cicadeae (yes like the genus of fungi for the last of us). It鈥檚 my first entomological fungi I鈥檝e found on my own. My friend really loves these jawns and it鈥檚 her second time ever seeing this morph, so I was super glad to bestow it upon her 馃槉
Edit: we鈥檙e not sure about the exact species so it鈥檚 going to get sequenced and then the dehydrated specimen will be saved in the academy of natural science鈥檚 herbarium
