Tremella foliacea Fries Fodros rezgögomba. Known as Brown Witches’ Butter. The fungus is an irregular gelatinous arrangement of lobes and cups fused at the base 5-15 cm wide. The colour is brown to reddish-ochre, lighter when fresh and young. Spores dull cream-yellowish, 8-11 x 6-9um nearly spherical. Smell and taste slight. Growing on hardwood twigs and logs in autumn right up to winter; Found in both Europe and North America . Said to be edible but I advise not eating it. The pictures were sent to me by Loren Barthó in Hungary the second one was taken by Edit Szilvásy to both of them I am most grateful. |
