$Exidia thuretiana appears on rotting hardwood, and particularly beech. In dry weather this fungus shrinks and becomes quite hard. You will need wet weather to find this fungus: during dry spells it shrivels up almost completely to leave just a transparent rubbery patch on the host wood.\nDescription: Pure white when wet, drying to almost invisible, the fruiting bodies are cushion shaped, becoming contorted with age and fusing with neighboring fruiting bodies to form a large mass several cm across. Individual fruit bodies grow to between 0.2 and 1cm across. \nHabitat: Mainly on dead and decaying hardwood, particularly Beech and Ash.\nSeason Fruitbody: Late autumn and early winter in Britain and Ireland.\nDistribution: Exidia thuretiana occurs throughout Britain and Ireland, but in most areas it is rather an uncommon find. This jelly fungus can be seen also in many countries on mainland Europe and in northern Africa.\nTaxonomic History: The basionym of this species was established in 1848 by the French physician and mycologist Joseph-Henri Léveillé (1796 - 1870), who described this jelly fungus and gave it the binomial scientific name Tremella thuretiana. Then in 1874 Swedish mycologist Elias Magnus Fries transferred this species to the genus Exidia, and so its scientific name became Exidia thuretiana, which remains its generally-accepted name today. \n\nI found this Species in a Fungus Rich Forest in the Province Flevoland on a Branch of Beech (Fagus sylvatica).$
