FOTD #083 : viscid black earth tongue! (glutinoglossum glutinosum)
the viscid black earth tongue (or glutinous earthtongue) is a saprophytic fungus in the family geoglossaceae. it often grows among moss or in grassy areas :-) it is quite common in the northern hemisphere !!
the big question : can i bite it?? sure - it's edible, but considered "not worth eating". it has been said to be delicious when stewed<3
g. glutinosum description :
"the smooth, nearly black, club-shaped fruitbodies grow to heights ranging from 1.5 to 5 cm (0.6 to 2.0 in). the head is up to 0.7 cm (0.3 in) long, & the stipes are sticky."
