New Species - False Puffball (Reticularia lycoperdon )

Not just a new species but a new Kingdom as this is a Slime Mould and is in the Kingdom 'Protista' and I haven't recorded and Protists here before. This is on a conifer stump about 2 metres above ground height. In identifying it I came across this blog entry from 2014 on a Carmarthenshire Fungi blog that extended my knowledge of Slime Moulds and this species so I have quoted it below. "Slime Moulds are a strange class of amoeboid protozoa, previously thought to be fungi but now known to be Myxomycota, which are organisms which prey on microbial food webs. This particular species is a bacterial predator and usually very tiny and unlikely to be seen, but this particular stage of it’s life cycle is a fruiting body known as a sporangium. This is a globular formation which swells up to around 50-80mm"
