Tremella rufobrunnea

A reddish-brown jelly fungus described by L. S. Olive in 1948 in Mycologia from Louisiana. GBIF records come from moist woods near Baton Rouge and Avery Island, Louisiana (1947–1949) and from Punaauia, Tahiti (1956), where it grew on decorticated Acacia limbs. It is not cultivated.

Where it grows wild

On dead, bark-free branches (Acacia in Tahiti) in moist lowland woods; like other Tremella it presumably parasitises a wood-decay fungus there.

All sites are lowland, below about 150 m.
