  Go to: Slime Molds Group 2 Go to: Slime Molds Group 3  

Group 1, below, shows sporangia of slime molds that are more-or-less identified. Group 2 shows sporangia of slime molds that are not identified. Group 3 has photos of slime mold sclerotia and plasmodia. A number of the images in this section were taken by Sylvia Sharnoff or her father, Victor Duran. Grateful thanks to Alison Pollack for a number of these identifications.
