Leocarpus fragilis
It is not only their sudden and sporadic appearance that is fascinating, but also the fact that in their early stages of their life cycle they share some characteristics with animals (i.e. they feed and move about), while their reproductive stage is similar to that of fungi, i.e. they produce spores.
Randy,what do you think of the ID? Both Leocarpus and Physarum do look so similar. Physarum is also a "intelligent Slime"
