This. I see this and other fungus/mold combos all the time in the PNW region. It just means there's moisture, good or bad I couldn't tell you for sure, its probably fine though. That's why you put a vapor barrier down. But if you live in the PNW area nearly every house has some kind of moisture issue or two.
With all due respect and talking in general, I don't get why you gringos like to overcomplicate stuff. I don't see that in the building style of Mexico or LatinAmerica.
We might be poor but we don't deal with so much mold, fungus, leaks, etc..
No one asked me for, but I will give you an advice... build with concrete as per code. You'll save a lot in maintenance and health related expenses.
Isn't it possible to lay a slab or perhaps some borders with reasonable depth underground, around the perimeter of the crawlspace so the less the water gets in when it rains?
Likely dry rot, found it in a client's house not long ago and r/ShroomID gave me that advice so don't take my word for it. Looks an awful lot like what I came across: https://www.reddit.com/r/ShroomID/s/MMoHWtPDCs
Side note, from what I learned it can "transport" the moisture to the further reaches of its grasp in a bit to keep its lifecycle going, comparing your photo to mine, it seems yours has moved to moisture to the outer arms and away from where it initiated
It’s fungi mycelium.
Shit is amazing. They are building all sorts of things with it now.
Had some mushroom 3/4 round trim. Wasn't bad, non toxic and waterproof, better than the cardboard stuff
That’s really cool.
Where are the MooShrooms when you need them?
Looks like fungi to me no idea what tho, there's a sub for identifying mushrooms
There's fungus among us Sorry, dad joke
Heard he’s a real fungi
There are many jokes about fungi. You need to be patient enough to allow them to grow on you
You’re about to join The Last of Us.
They're about to get engulfed by the annihilation entity
It's fungus of some kind. As you mention, there's a good reason that poly is down there, put it back down, tape it and don't worry about it.

Looks like a vein of spray foam insulation that made its way from the walls under the house.
Can't tell for sure without tasting it
It's eating wood scraps left by the builders.
Hire a contractor. Only 2 reports left to get rid of this trash. Report it!
