I think you will find this is a type of fungi.

No, not a fungus, but a Slime Mould, now placed in a different Kingdom from the fungi.
There is an excellent New Zealand site for the slime-moulds, and I think this one - Tubifera ferruginosa could be your one: http://www.hiddenforest.co.nz/slime/family/reticulariaceae/retic01e.htm

Thanks for your help ... i did wonder about it being a fungi ... it just seemed strange to be the only one and be so small ... thanks again
