About Auricularia angiospermarum Y.C.Dai, F.Wu & D.W.Li
Auricularia angiospermarum produces thin, brown, ear-shaped fruit bodies with a rubbery-gelatinous texture. These fruit bodies reach up to 80 mm (3.1 in) across and 3 mm (0.12 in) thick, and grow either singly or in clusters. The upper surface of the fruit body is finely covered in short hairs, and the spore-bearing underside is completely smooth.
This fungus is a wood-rotting species, and it typically grows on dead attached or fallen wood from broadleaf trees. It is widely distributed across North America, and has not been recorded growing in any other regions as of yet.
