Pictures of a fungus collected at the recent bioblitz in Juneau. It so far has proved to be a stumper, with even experienced mycologists not recognizing it, despite it’s distinctive coarse hair-like appearance.
Collected from rotting wood during the Juneau Bioblitz, this unidentified basidiomycete has so far stumped all who've seen it.

Found the same specimen in Newfoundland Canada, has everybody stumped?
Interesting – later it was thought to possibly be an old Gloiodon. In Sitka I’ve found one that I’ve been told is Gloiodon occidentale https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/12260134
Found a similar one Outside on top of a tarp. Weather is dry right now. When touched it releases a cloud of dark dust which must be it’s spores. Brown base and black hairs in Burnaby bc
