Small Stagshorn

Calocera cornea – Inedible

Rotten deciduous and coniferous wood. Summer, autumn.

Fruiting bodies small, tough, of jelly-like consistency, cylinder- or club-shaped, very rarely slightly branched, somewhat pointed in the upper part, 0.5-1.5 cm tall, pale yellow, brownish-yellow. Flesh yellowish. Characteristic features: somewhat similar to the yellow stagshorn (Calocera viscosa), but its fruiting bodies are small, growing close to one another in large colonies on windfalls, branches and stumps. Grows in larger or smaller groups in forests, parks, gardens and homestead sites on rotten wood. Not rare.
