Tremella saccharicola

A yeast-forming Tremella described in 2019 in the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, isolated from sugarcane leaves in Thailand, with further strains from Brazil. It is known as a yeast in culture, not as a fruiting mushroom, so there is nothing to fruit at home.
