Wasn't sure whether to put this in the Bug Fung thread or here

 

 

But think it slips in here nicely.

 

 

 

So.........

 

Is the poor wretched spider sooooo dumb that it didn't think that placing his web directly under a sporolating fung would make the web redundant ?

 

Or.........

 

Is this a cunning plan 'B' to feast on the Ganoderma 'cocoa powder' when there wasn't any flies falling for his trap ?

My contribution with four examples.

1. Ganoderma lipsiense on beech.

2. Ganoderma pfeifferi on beech.

3. Inonotus hispidus (guttating) on Malus.

4. Armillaria mellea covering the forest floor with white spores.
