Snow Fungus

Tremella fuciformis

Description:

fleshy, rubbery smooth texture, creamy white color. this was growing in my basement.

Habitat:

basement

Notes:

With all the rain we've had this spring my basement has been very humid and thats with a dehumidifier on 24/7. I was still surprised to see a mushroom growing. There's no natural light in my basement. Not 100% of the ID but it's really close.

tremella fuciformis , try the genus tremella (or maybe an american sp. from genus auricularia)
