Cromwell Bottom January 11th 2014
These fungi were seen whilst we collected the old birds nests from the boxes
Jelly Ear fungus - Auricularia auricula-judea
The same, showing how translucent these can be
Found on a dead branch
Many thanks to Peachy Steve and Alison this is now identified as Plicatura crispa
With this growing so densely I wonder if it might be Plicatura crispa (Crimped Gill). I've seen some looking like this recently. I can't tell if there is any pale brown above but it looks as though there might be.

Hi Bruce,
ReplyDeleteI agree with Steve that it is Plicatura crispa as it does have crimped gills.
Cheers.
