Trichoglossum hirsutum
Black
I agree. That looks much more like it. Thank you.
That looks much closer. Good call Lipase.
in my guide Trichoglossum hirsutum looks the most similar of the earth tongues
look a bit like a black 'earth tongue' species too. were they rubbery/like jelly babies or were they hard and rigid? If they were hard I'd guess xylaria too or similar genus
It's quite possibly another Xylaria species.
Yeah, my natural history teacher said they were, but now that I looked them up I don't think they are either.
I don't think these are deadman's fingers, but they are very cool.
So unusual!
