Dear Subhada Ji,
Thanks
for your lovely efforts to resend the pictures, these snaps are good enough
hence I am not craving for the best. The problem was Rashida Ji's picture was
bit small. As you and Rashida ji has suggested this to be a mushroom, I have a
completely different inference regarding the bio-form in the photos which is
not at all mushrooms but Lichen, coralloid lichens are very common, initially
same conclusion (lichen) came into my mind when I saw the picture posted by
Rashida Ji hence kindly asked her for the larger picture. this Lichen belongs
to the genus Cladonia sp but without
the study of the mycobiont and the phycobiont its hard for me to move into the
species level at least the fruit bodies could have helped me out but alas the
lichen in not in it's reproductive state. Through Google search you can see an
array of photos of this genus comprising of different species. Hope you will
cherish the beauty of nature and the smooth taste of Fungal Biology and
Lichenology.
Best Regards
Tanay
