Comments

Tremella mesenterica or Witches Butter is the name assigned to most collections of yellowish-orange jelly fungi in the S.F. Bay Area. Dacrymyces palmatus, however is very similar and the two species cannot be reliably told apart without the use of a microscope. Tremella mesenterica has longitudinally septate basidium while the basidium in Dacrymyces palmatus resembles a tuning fork. Vaata siit ja siit!
