Tubifera
''Tubifera'' is a genus of slime moulds from the subclass Myxogastria. The genus comprises 12 species. Description The fruit-bodies are aethalia formed from numerous, usually densely packed sporangia. The oblong sporangia are ochre, pink or red to dark brown and may be shiny or shimmering. They open at the tip to release the spores. The hypothallus is spongy, occasionally raised to a stem-like, stock, dark-coloured structure or also, on ''Tubifera bombarda'', soft and film-like thin. The membranous, single layered peridium outlasts the below half. A pseudocapillitium may or may not be present. The spores are light yellow to reddish-brown. Habitat ''Tubifera ferruginosa'' and ''Tubifera microsperma'' are more widespread and common than the other species from this genus. All species, except ''Tubifera casparyii'', are also common in the tropics. Classification The genus was circumscribed in 1873 by Józef Thomasz Rostafiński. The type species is ''Tubifera ferruginosa'', fi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tubifera Ferruginosa
''Tubifera ferruginosa'', more commonly known as ''raspberry slime mold'' or ''red raspberry slime mold'', is a species of slime mold in the class Myxogastria. It is one of the most widely known and distinct slime molds, being found throughout temperate regions of the world, primarily in Europe and North America North America is a continent in the Northern Hemisphere and almost entirely within the Western Hemisphere. It is bordered to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, to the southeast by South America and the Car .... Description ''T. ferruginosa'' is often found growing on damp rotten wood in temperate forests. It forms small, cushion-like "pseudoaethalia", or fruiting bodies from June to November that are bright red when young, and purple-brown when mature. These "pseudoaethalia" are different from the aethelia of other slime molds like Fuligo septica, because they are made of tightly bunched, gelatinous rods, or sporangia. ...

Tubifera Dudkae
''Tubifera dudkae'' is a species of slime mold in the class Myxogastria. Unlike its relatives, ''T. dudkae'' does not form pseudoaethelia with distinct sporangia, or at least the sporangia are not visibly distinct or rod-shaped like other members of Tubifera. They are found growing on damp, dead wood in temperate forests, including where it was first documented in Ukraine. '' T. dudkae'' is found in mixed and coniferous forests across Europe and Asia Asia (, ) is one of the world's most notable geographical regions, which is either considered a continent in its own right or a subcontinent of Eurasia, which shares the continental landmass of Afro-Eurasia with Africa.

Tubifera Microsperma
''Tubifera microsperma'' is a species of slime mold in the class Myxogastria Myxogastria/Myxogastrea (myxogastrids, ICZN) or Myxomycetes ( ICN), is a class of slime molds that contains 5 orders, 14 families, 62 genera, and 888 species.

Tubifera Applanata
''Tubifera applanata'' is a species of slime mold in the class Myxogastria. It forms 2 to 7 cm wide "pseudoaethelia" (mass of sporangia) that are rust-red in color. They are found growing on damp, dead wood in temperate forests, including where it was first documented, which was on a log of Pinus sylvestris in Ukraine Ukraine ( uk, Україна, Ukraïna, ) is a country in Eastern Europe. It is the second-largest European country after Russia, which it borders to the east and northeast. Ukraine covers approximately . Prior to the ongoing Russian invas ....

Tubifera Corymbosa
''Tubifera corymbosa'' is a species of slime mold in the class Myxogastria. It forms "pseudoaethelia" (mass of sporangia) that are rust-red in color. Each sporangia is distinctly larger than those of other related species. They are found growing on damp, dead wood on the forest floor. ''T. corymbosa'' is found in tropical forests of Central America Central America ( es, América Central or ) is a subregion of the Americas. Its boundaries are defined as bordering the United States to the north, Colombia to the south, the Caribbean Sea to the east, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. ....
