Several of these purple blobs scattered in a small area of a tree trunk. Consistency similar to jelly.
Excellent find - I love seeing these! Although I suspect we may have more than one purple species in our region, for the moment we are calling these relatively large and strikingly coloured jelly fungi - Ascocoryne sarcoides.
Thank you very much for the ID. I searched for Ascocoryne sarcoides, and noted that it can grow to quite a big lump. I was lucky to find these very small and inconspicuous blobs. Great incentive to look harder.
