Suku TaeniolellaHavainnoija
csyampaeKuvaus
Tentative. I am a little baffled by this and will have to do more microscopy. What I thought could be Taeniolella was found growing on a population of Umbilicaria americana. Upon closer examination the structures found on the cortex seem structurally similar also to the lichen's own rhizines. I am left confused, however, as I do not understand why a lichen would partition precious resources for rhizine growth at such an unusual location and while apparently going unused in securing the lichen to the substrate and while being morphologically similar to the suggested genus. I have also seen aquatic members of Taeniolella, associated with Verrucaria, on the underside of submerged rocks at Falls Creek nearby.

Brown bear chasing after something which appears as a blur in the beginning of the video. Minutes later a large bull moose walks past with no apparent concerns.

Gulo smelling the tracks of two mountain goats that passed less than one hour prior. If any predator can match the cliff-worthiness of mountain goats, it's the wolverine!

Observation duplicated as per comments by

"This is a mix of Chaitophorus and Pterocomma. The smaller darker ones, and the one with the dark wing veins look like Chaitophorus, but the one behind the ant and the reddish ones look like Pterocomma.

Ludicrous record but makes sense given the past 11C weather. Snowy as hell and flew out in front of @kaiden and I. Habitat pic and field sketch. Brown body with pale yellow outer wings, nothing else it could have been. Chased to get a photo but we were unsuccessful.
@aiva @thyggen thanks for the memo about incidentals / field sketches, I hope you’re proud of yourselves
