Macroscopic features
The umber brown glandle forms gelatinous, stalked and button- or bowl-shaped fruiting bodies. The basidiocarpies are up to 10 mm in size, the stalk is about 2 mm long and wide. The fruiting bodies grow in small groups and do not fuse together. When young, the fruiting bodies are pale yellow-brown, later yellowish to dark brown. The hymenium initially has small glandular warts that later disappear. It is dry and has sharp-edged ribs. Under certain circumstances, the young fruit bodies can be confused with those of the rock candy gland ( E. saccharina ).
Microscopic features
The hyphae structure of the umber brown glandular is monomitic like all glandular ones , so it consists only of generative hyphae. They are cylindrical, hyaline, and inamyloid .
distribution
The umber brown drüsling has so far only been found in Europe. There his art area extends eastward from France to Hungary, Kaliningrad and Poland.
ecology
Like other glandulars, the umber brown glandular is a saprobiont . It only colonizes dead wood from conifers . Both wood and bark of the crown region serve as a substrate; fructification takes place preferably in summer.
