Phaeotremella jelly fungus 🍄 by Dr. Gordon Walker @fascinatedbyfungi Phaeotremella jelly fungus is evolutionarily ancient and absolutely fascinating. For a food source they eat (mycoparasitize) the mycelium of other fungi that grow on the decaying wood (like Stereum). The jelly mushroom is a manifestation of their sexual stage (2N) phase, but they can also live as single celled yeasts in their clonal/asexual stage (1N). The fruiting bodies are filled with complex fiber and bioactive molecules that help this mushroom deter predators, resist rot/mold, and could be medically relevant for humans. While somewhat flavorless, jelly mushrooms like these are edible.

They may align themselves in a tight formation, often in a line or a V-shape, and move rapidly and erratically to avoid obstacles and predators. They also take turns leading and following to conserve energy.
