I'm really worried about this that I found in our living room coming down from my next to the wall. Can anyone help identify it? the hair like strands will move if you tap the wall, they are loosely hanging it seems. Husband is at work and said he is going to get it removed as soon as he comes home. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b385/jelybu/106.jpg http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b385/jelybu/103.jpg If I'm in the wrong place please forgive me as I have no idea what this is in the image. Thanks for any help. Jessica
It's in the genus Stemonitis. It's actually in the Kingdom Protista, not Fungi, but it's a slime mold and usually gets lumped with fungi anyway. I guess this was the right place to post your query because you got an answer. :) Here's a great page about them. http://www.messiah.edu/Oakes/fungi_on_wood/club and coral/species pages/Stemonitis.htm
