Tremella nigra

Tremella nigra is an 18th-century name published by Withering for a black jelly fungus in Britain. It is not used in modern works, and what it refers to is uncertain; it may be an older name for a black jelly fungus such as an Exidia. There is no reliable habitat information and it is not cultivated.
