so have removed my suggestion of it. This material is far too extensive for T. palmata that I have seen, even though some of it reaches 2 or 3 inches in height. I have never seen T. palmata with white tips, even when young. I will therefore side with Tom, Thelophora sps., and state I have never seen it before. Those additional photos are a clincher in my opinion.

Thelephoras normally open out into fans as they mature, don’t they? These things didn’t — they stayed coral/fingerlike and eventually withered.
