"Reference material" for a common false positive. A look at the weathered outside makes it less obvious, but the last 2 pics show it partly unfolded to see it's a discarded napkin (I had thought it would be a tissue).
After happily remarking that I had just found "human tissue remains", I got an unexpected reaction and then there was much laughter over the misunderstanding.

Both birds got suddenly quiet and into this low-profile position, hiding from some aerial predator that I could not see. :-)

In clearing of lowland rainforest. This observation is for the caterpillar. The host plant, which appears to be Dalechampia cf. juruana, is submitted as a separate observation.
The same looking caterpillar has been identified as Hamadryas chloe (see www.projectnoah.org/spottings/16479399), but this determination appears to be incorrect... the true H. chloe larva looks quite different (www.scielo.org.co/pdf/bccm/v25n1/0123-3068-bccm-25-01-123.pdf). Based on my research, the closest match, minus the the prominent yellowish bands (intraspecific variation?), appears to be H. amphinome (compare images at www.flickr.com/search/?text=Hamadryas%20amphinome and https://caterpillars.myspecies.info/taxonomy/term/57057/media). The closely related H. arinome is also similar (https://caterpillars.unr.edu/lsacat/species/nymphalidae/nym22/nym22.htm), but again it lacks the yellow bands. These imperfect matches may indicate the possibility of this being H. belladonna whose caterpillar appears to be unknown but which occurs in this area and is sister to H. amphinome (see phylogeny of Garzón-Orduña et al. 2013, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/cla.12021).

2nd photo is stalk with paving-like structure, and 3rd photo is spherical spores. Last photo is the 'slugs' tranforming into fruitbodies. They are eating a yellow bacterium.
It has dextrinoid spores, not mentioned in the literature, but then people don't often mount myxos in melzers reagent.

Location: White Rock Campground
Habitat: Open oak woods with Rhododendron.
Substrate: Well decayed moss-covered log.
I was struck at some 20 yards away by the beautiful orange pseudoaethalium on a moss-covered, well-rotted log. It had apparently formed overnight. I coillected it and watched it got progressively darker. It turned tan by evening.
One mystery is that some pseudoaethalia turned oily black – and even stained my clothes. It seems that the normal progression is from orange to tan sporangia full of dry, tan spores, which then are released. I’m not sure why some bodies were oily black.
