subdivision =Tremellales Auriculariales Dacryomycetales The class Heterobasidiomycetes or jelly fungi is aparaphyletic group of several fungal orders:Tremellales ,Auriculariales ,Dacrymycetales . These fungi are so named because their foliose to irregularly branched fruiting body is, or appears to be, the consistency of jelly. Actually, many are somewhat rubbery and gelatinous. When dried, jelly fungi become hard and shriveled; when exposed towater , they return to their original form.A number of the jelly fungi can be eaten raw; poisonous jelly fungi are rare. However, many species are not of a texture or taste that one would want to consume. They may or may not be sought in
mushroom hunting due to theirtaste , which is described as similar to that ofsoil . However, some species, "Tremella fuciformis" for example, are not only edible but highly prized for use in soup and vegetable dishes.List of jellies
