Photographic identification review

Evidence for this exact frame

Reviewed hypotheses are preserved separately from the current archive label and from iNaturalist computer vision. They record what the photograph supports, what remains plausible, and what the frame cannot resolve.

Conclusion: Reticulidia fungia

Reviewed by Codex identification research on Aug 27, 2026 · 88% reviewer confidence.

Reasoning recorded at review

  • Few broad, smooth orange-cream dorsal ridges rather than numerous narrow ridges
  • Fine pale-white edging at the bases of the broad ridges
  • Conspicuous broad blue-grey to white mantle border
  • Black fields between the dorsal ridges

Alternatives considered

  • Reticulidia halgerda

    Why plausible: Same genus and a superficially similar black-and-orange reticulate dorsum

    Comparison: R. halgerda should instead show more numerous narrow ridges and a narrow orange, not broad blue-grey, mantle margin

Evidence limits & sources +
  • • Ventral black line and rhinophore lamella count are not resolved in the photograph
  • • Specimen evidence would be needed for anatomical confirmation
