I've looked this up in the Audubon book and have come up with two possibilities. A Yellow-tipped Coral or Crown-tipped Coral mushroom. One is edible, the other poisonous.
Could anyone lend a guess?
Thank you.
Habitat: Woods
Gills: Yellow Orange
Stem: Solid
Cap:
Spore print color: Not sure how to take a print for this type.
Bruising: I did not notice any.
Other information: Smells just like a Chanterelle.

Looks like a Ramaria maybe Ramaria formosa.

Hericium coralloides? Or Hericium ramosum?

That's probably more likely.

To yellow for that. Im pretty sure its a Ramaria. Hericium grows on wood. This looks as if it is growing from the ground. Also Some Ramaria are posinous.

As I recall, they were growing on the ground. I did not notice any decomposed wood under the leaves but the group did look as if they were in a line. Like they would be following a root.
They were growing near an oak tree.

That is typical of Ramarias to grow like that. Im pretty sure that is what it is.
