The whitish club mushroom ( Tremellodendropsis tuberosa ) is a rare species of fungus from the Hyaloriaceae family .

features

Macroscopic features

The firm, gelatinous to tough fruiting bodies grow either singly, gregariously or in tufts. They reach a height of up to 7 cm and a width of up to 4 cm. The habit is club-like to coral-like branched with a pronounced, up to 3 cm long and 4 mm thick stem area.

Microscopic features

The hypha system is built dimitically. The skeletal hyphae are hyaline and thick-walled. The cylindrical or somewhat swollen generative hyphae are also hyaline, but thin-walled. Their width is between 1 and 5 µm. There are usually buckles on the transverse walls of the hyphae . The club-like basidia have a size of 40–60–90 × 8–14–18 µm and dividing walls drawn in along the top. At the ends there are 8–15 × 3 µm sterigms on which a total of 2 or 4  spores mature. The spores are hyaline, spindle-shaped and show no color reaction in iodine solution ( inamyloid ). Their dimensions are 10–20 (–24) × 4.5–7 (–9) µm.

Species delimitation

The comb-shaped club mushroom ( Clavulina coralloides ) has predominantly coral- shaped branched fruit bodies, pointed and typically comb-like split or ciliate branch ends. The wrinkled club mushroom ( C. rugosa ) has 1–3 more or less club-shaped, longitudinally furrowed and wrinkled branches that branch out at most in the upper area. Both Clavulina species occur in Central Europe in forests. The white to pale brownish white meadow coral ( Ramariopsis kunzei ) lives in open grass locations, but is rich and densely branched and has U-shaped forks.

ecology

The whitish club jelly mushroom grows on the ground in forests and parks, on bare earth or between herbs and mosses.

distribution

The mushroom species occurs in New Zealand, Indonesia (Borneo), India and South America (Brazil, Bolivia). In the Holarctic it is meridional temperate to subboreal, oceanic. In North Asia there is evidence from China, Japan and Siberia. In North America, the species can be found in Canada and the United States. The mushroom is also known from the Bermuda Islands and Algeria in North Africa.

There are European found reports in the south from Spain, in the west and northwest from England, France, the Netherlands, in the middle from Germany, Poland, Switzerland, the Czech Republic and in the north from Finland and Sweden.

The red list of large mushrooms in Germany lists the species as critically endangered (endangerment category 1).
