Found in North Vancouver on the cut side of a big log. Biggest caps approx. 1 cm wide. Could it be what is described here: 'Two fairly distinct versions of Pseudohydnum gelatinosum occur in North America …. The other version has a stem that is less well developed, and typically fruits from the sides of logs or from standing trees, often in overlapping clusters; it appears in eastern North America.'? Pseudohydnum gelatinosum (MushroomExpert.Com) Seems to fit, except for eastern North America.
At some point I expect someone will do the work on this and discover that it is a species complex: The differences in colour, habit and habitat particularly strike me as clues. I have rarely seen it cluster, and have never seen it cluster like this in close overlapping arrangement. But we don't have anything else that comes close in this region: Anything else that is gelatinous and/or toothed has a much different appearance. So, yes I agree this is Pseudohydnum gelatinosum, Spirit Gummy Bear
Thanks for lightening speed replies and ID! I find it interesting how the young caps seem to be forming inside the jelly.
Thanks, I must say I'm spending way too much time these days taking countless photos and editing some.
