Calocera cornea is a jelly fungus that grows on decaying wood.[1] It is a member of the Dacrymycetales, an order of fungi characterized by their unique "tuning fork" basidia.
Its yellow, finger-like, tapering basidiocarps are somewhat gelatinous in texture. In typical specimens the basidiocarps become up to 3 mm in diameter, and 2 cm in height. The hymenium covers the sides of the basidiocarps, each basidium producing and forcibly discharging only two basidiospores.
It is inedible.[2] Calocera viscosa is related.[1]
