I went looking for pictures of trichoderma and came up with this link

erma.html

quote >>>

Trichoderma species are strongly antagonistic to other fungi. The exact
nature of this relationship is still not clear, but it appears that they
kill other fungi with a toxin and then consume them using a combination of
lytic enzymes. This suggests they are actually microbial predators.

ps could only find trichogamma on David Loring's site.
