Is it more typically found in spring months? Is it found more typically in the early morning hours? Does it disappear as the morning progresses or sun comes out or begins to shine?

Any answers would be much appreciated. Thanks

Thought that was clear enough in my first post

What is clear to me is that if you want to be a scientist (and not a ufologist !) then you are wasting your time on this forum and should simply Google 'Nostoc commune', take note of all the citations mentioned and try to obtain copies of the papers on the work already done.

But you already know that when it rains in summer, the 'dormant' Nostoc absorbs the moisture, swells up and becomes noticeable. Oh drat, I've done all the work for you.

Oh well, you could always try your hand at fungi.

Still haven't gotten any answers to my questions I was hoping for. Also in other research on the web there were lab tests done on a material such as this showing no DNA in specimens tested. I would surmise both Nostoc commune and fungi would have a tracable DNA in them.

Although this is besides the point of any form of patterns I was looking for as to when it appears on open ground away from common areas of water.

Thanks for the replies though
