This Creepy-Looking Fungus Known as "Dead Man's Fingers"
Description
Individual fingers vary from 1 to 3cm in diameter and are usually between 3 and 8cm long when fully developed. The surface is initially white or greyish and covered in a fine pallid powder (conidia) during the asexual stage, later becoming slightly granulated and darkening through brown to black, sometimes with greenish or bluish tinges.
