Description

Tremellomycetes are not plants but a class of fungi characterized by gelatinous, sometimes tremulous fruiting bodies. These fungi typically thrive in moist environments, often on decaying wood, which plays a crucial role in their lifecycle as decomposers. Their distinctive jelly-like appearance helps in moisture retention, vital for their survival in various habitats.
