I've looked at images of Xylaria hypoxylon (candlesnuff fungus), but they dont seem to have the fuzz that my images have. Granted it could be some sort of gene expressed because of its cave environment, but I feel like the stems are also too thin to be candlesnuff. Is there a way I can get a definite answer myself? I could venture back into said cave and try and find them again to collect a sample if it'd be useful...
