Used references: The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Mushrooms, p. 385; photo 566 This is just a possibility, based on apparent size, color and texture. I would normally expect to see more than just a small clump.

Summary: What’s the substrate?

Looks like hardwood; if it were pine it could be Dacrymyces palmatus (but doesn’t look like it to me) instead of Tremella. In the southeast both species are essentially year-round.

Summary: Season

Ive been finding these almost all year long, tons in the spring and now after the rains they have been popping up everywhere.

Summary: Tremella mesenterica

I’d guess the same. But I wouldn’t expect it fruiting here for another 2-3 months.

Summary: Tremella?

It looks like Tremella mesenterica. At least if it was from around here and a few months later in the year.
