  1. I don't think this is a slime mold...It looks like Tremella mesenterica. Posted 7 years ago

"Tremella mesenterica" is a common jelly fungus in the Tremellaceae family of the Agaricomycotina. It is most frequently found on dead but attached and on recently fallen branches, especially of angiosperms, as a parasite of wood decay fungi in the genus "Peniophora".
