The exidia recisa ( Exidia Recisa ) is a fungal art of tremellomycetes from the family of the ear flap mushroom relatives (Auriculariaceae). Its yellow to black-brown, wavy-conical fruiting bodies grow in small groups. They appear all year round, especially in late winter on rotten dead wood of Sal willows ( Salix caprea ) and other deciduous trees. The species is distributed throughout the meridional to subboreal Holarctic .

Macroscopic features

The Kreisel-Drüsling forms gelatinous, initially head-stalked fruiting bodies. They later become top -shaped or slightly cup-shaped when the stalk is conical and the hymenium is flatter on top. The slightly shiny basidiocarpies are around 2.5 cm high and wide. They are initially yellow-brown, but can become lighter when they are washed out and darker (up to black-brown) when they dry out. The edge of the upper side is slightly notchy, it is initially smooth, later wrinkled.

Microscopic features

The hyphae structure of the gyroscopic glandular is monomitic , like all glandular ones , so it consists only of generative hyphae. They are cylindrical, hyaline, and inamyloid .

distribution

The Kreisel Drüsling lives in a Holarctic species area that extends from France and Great Britain to Mexico . The species prefers submeridional and temperate to subboreal climates .

ecology

Like other Drüsling, the Kreisel Drüsling is a saprobiont . It colonizes dead wood from deciduous trees , especially Sal willows ( Salix caprea ). The fructification takes place all year round, especially in late winter in cool, damp weather after rainfall.
