Yellow Stagshorn (Calocera viscosa) In the United Kingdom, it has the recommended English name of yellow stagshorn, in North America it is variously called coral jelly fungus, jelly staghorn, yellow false coral, yellow tuning fork etc. Masquerades as coral but it is really a jelly fungus. It is a saprotrophic fungus, meaning it feeds on dead and rotting organic matter. Grows on decaying conifer wood (like pine and spruce), it is non-toxic, but still has no culinary value. #weird #fungi #nature
