Fungus Identification?
Well I don’t have a pic but what I’m trying to identify is some sort of fungus, collected here in Germany (temperate) in the wet wet forest.
It’s big (soccer ball big), yellow, and looks kind of like a brain coral, or some full (but round) shrub with close-together lichen flowers.
It had a pretty thick stalk.
My mom would love to show it to her 2nd grade class but she just doesn’t know what it is and I can’t find a good dichotomous key!
Thanks!
Here are some pictures of rain forest fungus. sounds like wild mushroom.
