The gelatinous tears (Dacrymycetaceae) are the only family of the order of the gelatinous tears (Dacrymycetales) and these are the only ones of the class Dacrymycetes . They include mushrooms with predominantly strikingly colored, gelatinous fruit bodies. The most famous representatives include the gelatinous tears and horns .
features

The fruiting bodies of the tear fungus are soft, gelatinous, pliable and varied. The spectrum of shapes ranges from simple knobs to stem-cup-shaped and spatula-shaped to coral-like structures. They often have bright yellow to orange colors due to carotenoids , but can also be pale or colorless. Microscopically they are characterized by Y-shaped basidia and often septate spores when ripe . Several species form secondary spores on the basidiospores.
Systematics
The family includes just under a dozen genera worldwide.
