Description
- A unique spore variety first documented in Texas, known scientifically as EK4 which is short for “Extraterrestrial 4th Kind” (E4K)
- Notable for its distinct microscopic characteristics and research value in taxonomy studies
- Recognized by microscopists for its consistent spore formation patterns
Natural Habitat
- Native to the diverse grasslands of Texas, particularly in nutrient-rich soils near cattle pastures
- Thrives in subtropical climates with warm temperatures (70-85°F) and moderate humidity (65-75%)
- Commonly found in well-draining soils enriched with organic matter
Microscopic Characteristics
- Spores appear deep purple-brown under microscopic examination, similar to rich coffee grounds in color
- Individual spores display a smooth, oval-like shape (subellipsoid) when viewed at 400x magnification
- Spore size typically ranges from 11-14 micrometers in length, visible through standard laboratory microscopes
Collection Details
- Specimens preserved in laboratory-grade 10cc syringes with Luer-Lok fittings for research stability
- Includes sterile solution maintaining spore viability for microscopic study
- Packaged with a 1-inch 16-gauge sterile needle for precise slide preparation
