Observation 1104: Tremella mesenterica Retz.
When: 2006-11-24
Collection location: Wilder Ridge, Humboldt Co., California, USA [Click for map]
No specimen available
Notes:
Overall it was very poor collecting in southern Humboldt county this year. I believe the reason was an early cold snap which shutdown most of the mycorhizal species.
Also might be Tremella aurantia. I didn’t observer any Stereum on the branch and I don’t know how else to tell the difference between these two species.
