Neobulgaria pura
Pinkish-ochre, gelatinous fruitbodies initially shaped like spinning tops but eventually distorting as they push up against one another in groups, becoming more cup-like. This species is quite variable in size, the individual cups being typically 0.4 to 1.5 cm across and up to 8 mm tall. A brain-like form, Neobulgaria pura var. foliacea has a folded structure.
On fallen broad-leaved trees, particularly beech and oaks.
First four photos are of a young specimens, the last two are of an older specimens. Spotted in Paleispark 't Loo in rural area of Apeldoorn, Holland. (sources:see reference)
