Summary

Description   Fungus found growing in my cat's water dish.  According to the same expert that kindly identified my sample of Harposporium anguillulae, “this is definitely a nematophagous fungus of the genus Arthrobotrys, probably Arthrobotrys oligospora or Arthrobotrys candida.  The structures shown on your image are threedimensional adhesive nets.”
  See <http://www.biological-research.com/philip-jacobs%20BRIC/ar-olig.htm>.
  10× objective, 15× eyepiece; numbered ticks are 122 µM apart.  In the full-sized version of this image, each pixel represents a 0.407-µM square.
