Cavenderia pseudoaureostipes (TH39A). a Irregular violaceum-type aggregation, crab-like shape (left), a migrating small pseudoplasmodium, which ends as a settled mound (right). b Early central solitary sorogens with radiate ample streams (above, left), migrating with rest of streams (above, center), migrating without streams (above, right), late solitary unbranched sorogen (below left), clustered sorogens (below, center), branched late sorogen with prostrate lower part (below right). c Highly branched tightly clustered fruiting bodies (left), loose clustered prostrate and refruiting sorocarps (center), a smaller solitary unbranched stoloniferous sorocarp refruiting from a sorus (right). d Digitate bases on a disk of slime surrounded by smaller polygonal cells, the sheaths are densely fascicular (above, left and right), out of scale, scheme of a rounded base on a disk with basal cells (below, left) and curved clavate base with protruding cells (below, right). e Curved tips simple to capitate (left), a mass of dense mucilage close to the tip (center), capitate and simple tip (right). f Microcysts. g Elliptical regular spores with prominent consolidated PG and small vacuoles, a folded thin half of a spore-coat (left). h Myxamoeba. Scale bars: a: 300 μm; b: 200 μm; c: 0.5 mm; d: 25 μm; e: 10 μm; f: 2 μm; g: 5 μm; h: 10 μm
