Amber Jelly Roll
Exidia crenata is a North American jelly fungus with amber to orange-brown, top-shaped, gelatinous fruit bodies on dead hardwood twigs and branches, especially oak. The fruit bodies are often translucent and glossy. It fruits mostly in the cold months. It was long treated as a synonym of the European Exidia recisa, but DNA studies show the American species is distinct.
