Arcyodes incarnata is a species of slime mold from the order of the Trichiida and the only species of the genus Arcyodes .
description
The plasmodium is white or pink. The sessile or nearly sessile fruiting bodies are sporocarps , they are grouped or arranged in heap. They have a diameter of 0.5 to 0.8 millimeters, are usually slightly elongated-round and angularly shaped due to the mutual pressure. They are gray-pink when young, ocher to beige with age.
The hypothallus is normal. The peridium is tightly skinned and translucent, colored ocher to sometimes pink in transmitted light and papilous or finely meshed on the inside . When the spores ripen, they open irregularly, and the approach is usually permanent. The capillitium is an irregular, wide-meshed network of tubular, inelastic threads that are 2 to 8 micrometers thick and are fused to the peridium, they are sculptured with warts or spines. The spores are initially pink as a mass, later beige, but individually almost colorless. They are either smooth or sculpted with fine, pale warts, sometimes in groups, and are 6 to 8 micrometers in diameter.
distribution
The area of the species ranges from North America, Europe ( locus classicus is Germany) and Asia to the Tschukotka and in the south to the Bahamas and northern India. A find from Chile, which would be the only known find in the southern hemisphere, is considered very dubious.
Systematics and research history
The species was in 1805 by Johannes Baptista von Albertini and Lewis David von Schweinitz as Licea incarnata firstdescribed , 1902 presented Orator Fuller Cook then put them in a separate genus Arcyodes . The genus is monotypical .
