Description:

White and translucent. Rough like a cats tongue on the underside of the cap. Might have been a ghost, but there were a few so it might have been mushroom heaven.

Thanks! Tongue is a good name for it.

This fungus has several common names: Jelly Tooth (because it is one of the Toothed Fungi), Jelly Tongue and Jelly Hedgehog. It was formerly known by the scientific name Tremellodon gelatinosum.
