2nd Interesting Non-active. Peach Jellies
    #28586808 - 12/17/23 12:47 PM (1 month, 10 days ago)

This is bugging me.. I'd swear I've either photographed this before or at least seen a picture and description of it, but I'm not finding it.
I think that this is all the same organism, in different life stages - starting as very peach colored jelly ovals, hardening into little "barrels" - then a lighter peach-white colored jelly bursting out of them. Found on a well soaked piece of bark in a boggy area. If anyone recognizes this, you will be removing an itchy splinter from my brain :tongue:

I’d consider Lycogala epidendrum

Good guess- but I know it's not that. It's definitely a jelly and not a slime mold.

Cool looking with its different stages. Something in Helotiaceae?

I'm very blank on this type of fungi.

Yeah - I think so... the "adult" stage looks very much like Exidia candida, but as far as I know, that one never looks like the other forms.

I had to go back to make a collection, but there were still right where I found them.. and not changed much. I got samples of all 3, in case they are actually different things, though I don't think they are.

If you (or anyone else) has any tips about drying such tiny specimens, I'd be happy to take them. I don't have a dehydrator, but I do have a toaster oven with, I believe, a dehydrate setting. Also... should I attempt to remove them from the bark.. The big jelly is bark free and the barrel type structures popped off without bringing much substrate, but the others are quite tiny and I fear the attempt to take them off will destroy them.


I grabbed a sample of this too, for good measure. as it was growing on the same piece of wet bark..

I think it's maybe Flagelloscypha, but found little species information online.
