Features
Macroscopic characteristics
The fixed - gelatinous to tough fruiting bodies grow either individually, sociable or tufted. They reach a height of up to 7 cm and a width of up to 4 cm. The habitus is clavate to a coral-like branches with a distinct, up to 3 cm long and 4 mm thick stem portion.
Microscopic characteristics
The Hyphensystem is built dimitisch. The Skeletthyphen are hyaline and thick-walled. The cylindrical or slightly swollen generative hyphae are also hyaline, but thin walls. Its width is between 1 and 5 microns. Usually are buckles on the transverse walls of the hyphae. The clavate basidia have a size of 40-60-90 8-14-18 × micron and above along indented partitions. To 8-15 × 3 microns are large sterigmata on which mature in 2 or 4 spores at the ends. The spores are hyaline, fusiform and show no color reaction in iodine solution ( inamyloid ). Their dimensions are 10-20 (-24 ) × 4.5-7 (-9) micron.
Artabgrenzung
The comb -shaped lobe mushroom ( Clavulina coralloides ) has predominantly coral -branched fruiting bodies pointed and typical comb-like split or ciliate branch tips. The Wrinkled club fungus (C. rugosa ) has 1-3 more or less club-shaped, längsgefurchte and wrinkled branches, the maximum in the upper area indicated branch. Both Clavulina species occur in forests in Central Europe. Although the white to pale brownish whitish meadow coral ( Ramariopsis kunzei ) populated open grass sites, but is rich and densely branched and has U-shaped crotches.
Ecology
The Whitish lobe jelly fungus grows on the ground in forests and parks, on bare earth or between herbs and mosses.
Dissemination
The type of fungus is found in New Zealand, Indonesia (Borneo ), India and South America (Brazil, Bolivia). In the Holarctic it is meridional temperat to - Subboreal, oceanic spreading. In northern Asia there evidence from China, Japan and Siberia. In North America the species in Canada and the USA can be found. Also from the Bermuda Islands, and from the North African Algeria is known of the fungus.
European Fund messages there are in the south of Spain, in the west and north-west of England, France, the Netherlands, in the middle of Germany, Poland, Switzerland, Czech Republic and in the north of Finland and Sweden.
