Scarlet Elf Cup

Sarcosypha coccinea

Description:

A small cup fungus (about 2.5 inches across) with a brilliant red inside and a duller, whitish outside. Very little stem to speak of.

Habitat:

Deciduous hardwood forest.

Notes:

I find a few of these in this forest every year around this time of year, but I've never found more than a few.
