I have added the picture of the holotype collection of this mysterious species, never observed after the first description, in the hope that someone can spot it again.

Collected in the care and company of esteemed botanical illustrator and byeli grib/borovik hunter extraordinaire, Sasha Viazmenski. Elsewhere in these woods, the moss could get above knee-height, which came in handy for catching up on sleep after bartending all night.

Note the different forms of fung-o-vision produced by a delicate combination of rain, fog, sleep deprivation and Russian penthouse apartments.
