Pseudohydnum gelatinosum

Pseudohydnum gelatinosum

Description:

About 30mm wide in a loose group of 5 on a very large eucalyptus (E regnans?)

Habitat:

In a local nature reserve adjoining a national park.

Notes:

Also called toothed jelly fungus, false hedgehog mushroom, and white jelly mushroom. Apparently they can be candied for eating but are a bit bland.
