I always enjoy the sight of a white BEM, there is something rather uplifting about it. In this case one can see two white flowered plants, together with a BEM with formal colours.

Entomopathogen on an ant. Such an amazing find in an urban park.
This ant was found inside of a woody gall on a bud oak stem, produced by the wasp Disholcaspis quercusmamma. The ant must have climbed into the empty gall and then succumbed to the fungus.
I’m wondering if this fungus is also somehow involved in the gall/wasp relationship?

Very odd-looking, growing on the side of a railroad in an area that doesn't appear to be particularly wet with Reynoutria.

Finally got a chance to revisit the site of https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/143630146 and sampled another three galls. Figuring they'd all be empty already, I sectioned one in the field and lucked out on a live adult female! Large, intact specimen with tons of golden setae, beautiful. Leaning Q. macrocarpa on the host for all three, probably the original find as well.
Been digging around on Gallformers trying to find something similar and the closest I've gotten is Cynips heldae (https://www.gallformers.org/gall/1368) - but the host/range/gall location don't match. Very similar structure, though.

The dark base of the peridium seems to be a feature that separates this species from Lamproderma 'mossy', a similar but smaller species that occurs on the same bryophyte-covered logs and stumps.
Photo 2 rounded columella and the 2&3 membranous expansions on the capillitium.
4 tips of capillitium attached to peridium.
5 17 micron diameter echinulate spores.
