Description
Dacrymyces are notable for their distinctive gelatinous texture and vibrant yellow to orange colors. These fungi typically grow on decaying wood, particularly in damp environments. One interesting trait is their ability to change shape and appearance based on moisture levels, appearing more gelatinous when wet and more shriveled when dry. They play a crucial role in ecosystem nutrient cycling by breaking down wood and helping recycle organic material.
