Tremella vescicaria

A small jelly fungus described by Spegazzini 1918 (Revista Chilena de Historia Natural 22). Described from Chile; GBIF holds 5 records, from the USA (3) and Chile (2). Like most Tremella it is thought to parasitise other fungi on dead wood, and there is no cultivation method for it.
