Description

Snow Fungus on Lichens - Along an Inverness Fl. hiking trail.
Sometimes called the "snow fungus," Tremella fuciformis is a tropical and subtropical jelly fungus found on hardwood logs after heavy rains. It is whitish or nearly transparent, and fairly large (up to about 7 cm across)--and it features graceful gelatinous lobes rather than the glob-like blobs that typify so many other jelly fungi.

Like many jellies, Tremella fuciformis has a life cycle that is intertwined with that of another fungus; (My example is on Lichens) in this case an Ascomycete in the genus Hypoxylon. It is unclear whether Tremella fuciformis actually parasitizes the Hypoxylon, or whether there is a complex symbiosis or mutualism involved.
