Habitats and morphology of O. highlandensis at six time points from April to September. The map was created with ArcGIS 10.2 software. All the photographs were generated with a regular digital camera. April, white larva; May, dead ossified larva, gold; June, stroma rising from the head of the host larva, solitary, 2–4 cm long, stipe cylindrical, 2–3 mm in diam, smooth; July, 6–8 cm long, 1.5–2.5 mm in diam, dark-brown to blackish; August, fertile portion of stroma growing; September, Polycephalomyces synnemata rising from the stroma of Ophiocordyceps highlandensis (repeated parasitization)
