''Hericium abietis'', commonly known as the bear's head or the western coral hedgehog, is an edible mushroom in the tooth fungus group. It grows on conifer stumps or logs in North America, producing a cream white fruit body up to 10–75 cm tall and wide. It fruits from after the start of the fall rains to mid-season.
