Ceratiomyxa sp.
This one looks very similar to Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa but the structures and spread pattern don't look quite the same. Pic 2 looks like a transitional phase with sporangia just starting to form. Spottings of C fruticulosa in the past have all been on damp logs but this stuff is spread on soil amongst grasses and leaf litter.
In a local nature reserve.
Yet to research these shapes... checking other Ceratiomyxa species?
Similar? spotting here http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/215...
