Specimen notes
Public Note:
asexual state not obvious; attempted DNA extraction but not successful.
PRJ
Public Note:
The associated moth species is Habrophila compseuta (currently Tineidae), though I never saw the larvae actually feeding on these Stachybotrys and they may be grazing generally on the leaf surface and ingesting the fungal content non-specifically.
