Past and Ongoing Field-Based Studies of Myxomycetes
Microorganisms, 2023 Evidence from molecular studies indicates that myxomycetes (also called myxogastrids or plasmodial slime molds) have a long evolutionary history, and the oldest known fossil is from the mid-Cretaceous. However, they were not “discovered” until 1654, when

Observations on the slime moulds growing on the moulder beech wood
Acta Mycologica, 2014 We have found that the most suitable substrate for slime molds developement is the wood of dicotyledoneus trees especially that of beech. This is due to its impermanency and weak resistance to biological agents.
